Koicha-- I believe I can fly!

Let me preface this and the video I post below as saying that I have never been to Japan, or had a tea master (in some sense of the word) make me koicha.  As such its mostly a self taught technique based on reading, viewing pictures posted online, and discussions with a few people that have had such experiences.  I have been told that mine looks a little thin for koicha ( if you can believe it), which should be remedied by using less water, because I can certainly tell you, unless you are inhuman in your ability to handle the chemical cocktail that is strongly brewed tea, I definitely would not use any more tea than what was pictured.

That being said, enjoy a video of me making Koicha (thick matcha tea), then using the scraps in the bowl to whip up some Usacha (thin matcha tea).
