One of The Telegraph's Best Fiction Books 2011

Moscow, 2028. A scream, a moan, and a death rattle slowly pull Andrei Danilovich Komiaga out of his drunken stupor. But wait--that's just his ring tone. So begins another day in the life of an oprichnik, one of the czar's most trusted courtiers--and one of the country's most feared men.

In this new New Russia, where futuristic technology and the draconian codes of Ivan the Terrible are in perfect synergy, Komiaga will attend extravagant parties, partake in brutal executions, and consume an arsenal of drugs. He will rape and pillage, and he will be moved to tears by the sweetly sung songs of his homeland.

Vladimir Sorokin has imagined a near future both too disturbing to contemplate and too realistic to dismiss. But like all of his best work, Sorokin's new novel explodes with invention and dark humor. A startling, relentless portrait of a troubled and troubling empire, Day of the Oprichnik is at once a richly imagined vision of the future and a razor-sharp diagnosis of a country in crisis.

Poor Whisk Quality
Color: Green
I've had the kit for about a month. This matcha kit would be good for beginners just trying to get into making drinks at home. While I am not as experienced with matcha, I feel you could get a better ensemble to whisk your matcha. Mine is still holding up. I've made around 15 drinks probably? But I can't see the whisk holding on for longer than 3 months. The whisk quality is not very good. The whisk mixes well, but it has a tendency for the bristles to break and bits of bamboo to end up in your drink. The rest of the kit is holding up pretty well. The look of it is cute and minimalistic. Everything is easy to clean, though I think matcha kits are not meant to get very dirty besides coming in contact with matcha and water. If you mix anything else with this kit, I am not sure how well the bamboo will hold up in regards to mold.

Love This Set!
Color: Green
My daughter loves making matcha with this set. It as lasted for her matcha making sessions. The size is perfect to sit on top of the counter top. It's easy to clean, and leaves no after taste of any kind, nothing but great tasting matcha. The whisk makes to mix and get all the matcha powder so non sticks at the bottom or sides. It's a great buy!

Great so far!
Color: Green
Simple matcha kit that works. I make my Matcha in my mug so I did not need a bowl. (One less thing to clean. ) As long as you clean what you use right away, it all just comes off. It's survived near daily use since I baught it.
