A tea connoisseur goes to high tea at the Ritz-Carlton. The tea is simply amazing. He tells the waiter "this is surely the best tea in the world." The waiter replies, "Our tea is very good but it is widely known the best tea in the world is served by the cafe in Mercy, Australia.

Being a tea connoisseur, he simply must have the best tea in the world, so he books a flight to Adelaide and drives hours to Mercy. The cafe is a dump. He orders the tea and sure enough, it is simply amazing - nothing like it in the world. He asks the waiter the secret but gets no answer.

The tea connoisseur orders another and when the waiter is not looking, he peeks into the kitchen and sees the cook dunking a Koala in the tea pot.

When the waiter returns with the tea, he reports what he has seen and asks if the Kola hair is filtered from the tea. The waiter responds: "The Koala tea of Mercy is not strained."
