It's from The Knockout, it's a TV show. One of the major antagonists has a tea room set up in a big abandoned building like a Chinese crime boss batcave. It's kind of neat, the show is okay if you like the sort of "so serious it's goofy" 80's esque crime drama.

A gaiwan, you don't necessarily need to gongfu it but it was pretty rough and stemmy to grandpa brew. Generally I did find it was worth sitting down for a session with the tea, but I drank it a few times out of the gaiwan doing other stuff. Like most good shou, it's pretty much impossible to overbrew, it just gets stronger. Strong enough to have with food too, if I could get decent decent dim sum it'd be perfect. Classic HK tea in that regard.

It's from The Knockout, chinese drama, pretty good actually.
>Japanese greens
Probably a selection, light medium heavy steamed sencha, gyokuro, and maybe some hojicha. Or, I could save the hojicha for next fall.
>I hope you drink a ton of tea
I'll probably get around a kg of greens, that'll last me a little over a month and then I'll move on to something else. 10 packs of 100g seems reasonable, not really sure where I'll buy from yet.
