[@worldtraveler8372]

I thoroughly enjoyed your video! Where do you get your tea cups (bowls) from? They are so beautiful! How much does a set like that cost?

[@HimalayanDumplings]

Thank you so much 💛 The traditional Tibetan tea cups were a gift from my aunt. You can find them in Tibetan shops in Nepal and India. Not sure about the cost though ☺

[@A67-b3j]

Hello, would you know where to buy the fermented tea?

[@HimalayanDumplings]

If you're in US, there are some Tibetan shops in NEW York that ship them nationwide. Let me know if you're interested and I will find their social media page for you. Occasionally, I see them on Amazon too.
