Bureaucracy…
I found these nifty little glass teapots when I was at a tea show in Hong Kong last year, perfect for brewing at work. The tea brews in a top chamber and after the brew, you push a little button and the tea drains into the bottom cup, minus the leaves. They’re actually made in Taiwan. So I contact the company, buy a case of 36 and try to have it shipped here. The Japanese authorities are holding it unfortunately, needs to be “inspected” for food safetly. Jeez, it’s glass and plastic. Looks like this will involve a trip to Tokyo, money, etc - what a pain.
