This is the Tea of the "tea ceremony" it Commands total focus on it selfby virtue both of intense flavor and ritual surrounding it. One does not sip this kind of tea while doing something else it demands total attention to being pressent in the moment of watching the preparation, inbibing the liquid, and appreciating the utensils. There may be no better metaphor of the archetypal differences bettwen east and west then their respective nations of tea.
