I love tea and my definition of what counts as a tea-related post is pretty wide. Expect to see tea reviews, reviews of books about tea, and even posts about afternoon tea.
After three months, I am back with more quick tea reviews! Ethel and I finally had time to meet and she passed me alllll the Lupicia teas that I’ve been missing. Since I started caring less about the aesthetics of drinking tea (which is probably because I stopped taking pictures for IG), I brought my… Read More Lupicia Quick Tea Reviews #5
Today’s post is just a short one to remember a tea blending experiment I tried recently. As you know, I reread Infused fairly recently and my attention was caught by the tea blending passage. I also received two Rare Tea Company teas as part of a subscription. While I can drink sencha all day every… Read More A little tea blending experiment
Hello friends! Are you surprised that I’m back with another sustainabiliTEA profile? This part of the blog has been on hiatus for a while, but when Hanna from Wild Orchard reached out, I couldn’t resist the opportunity to learn more about another tea brand. Wild Orchard is an American-Korea tea brand that focuses on creating… Read More SustainabiliTEA: Wild Orchard Tea
Hello hello! I’m back with another review from the Rare Tea subscription. This time, we’re talking about tisanes – which is pretty much okay with me because I need something non-caffeinated. From the Rare Tea website, these Nepalese cherry blossoms come from Jun Chiyabari. Jun Chiyabari is a great garden; I had the chance to… Read More Tisane Review: Nepalese Cherry Blossoms from Rare Tea Company
If anyone remembers my tea haul post from about two weeks back, well… I have tea reviews from that haul for you! Also, the second part of my tea haul came so I get to talk about lots and lots of tea today! More Tea Incoming You know, when I initially bought the teas, I… Read More Quick Tea Reviews: 5 Chinese Teas + Another Tea Haul!
In my quest to read more books about tea, I stumbled across this one called Tea and Tourism. It’s published in 2007, so it’s a bit dated, but I hadn’t really heard of tea being paired with tourism as a concept and I wanted to find out more about it. With contributions from multiple researchers,… Read More Book Review: Tea and Tourism edited by Lee Jolliffe
I must be in some kind of productive phase because I’m here with my second review from the Rare Tea Subscription that I’m sharing with a friend. My expectations are all over the place for this limited edition sencha – they are pretty high because the white tea from the first month was delicious, but… Read More Tea Review: Limited Edition Sencha by Rare Tea Company
June was an intense work month. So intense that I turned to some retail tea-rapy. While knowing that I probably have more than enough tea for the next couple of months, I could NOT resist picking up quite a bit of Chinese tea (in sample form). Only half of my purchases are here but I… Read More My latest tea purchase
Well friends, as it turns out, I quite badly misjudged this tea. This is mostly because my favourite types of white tea are white tea buds because of how sweet (and caffeinated) they are. So the first time I had this with friends, I was not sure what they were raving about – it tasted… Read More Tea Review: First Flush Himalayan White by Rare Tea Company
It has taken me almost two weeks to write this review! That’s… not good but hopefully finishing this starts a good trend? Because I do have a different white tea – this other one from Nepal – that I want to talk about as well! This white tea is from Renegade Farm – not stranger… Read More Tea Review: Imereti Summer by Renegade Tea
