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.
Hello friends! While I’m full of the “new start” energy a new year brings, I want to make a move on this project that I’ve been wanting to do for a while – writing a book about tea! As you may know, I bumbled my way around tea-drinking for a while, but was lucky enough… Read More I need your questions about tea!
You may notice that the tea-portion of this blog has had a slower start to the year. But I do have several plans and I decided to kick things with a quick stock-take of what’s in my tea stash and what you might be seeing on the blog in the near future. Right now, I’m… Read More My 2023 Start-of-the-Year Tea Stash
I was in Seoul recently, and since I had some free time, my boyfriend and I decided to visit the Beautiful Tea Museum! I saw “we decided” but really, I am the tea addict here and he was happy to accompany me there. I heard about Teastory Beautiful Tea Museum from a friend on Instagram!… Read More Visiting Teastory Beautiful Tea Museum in Seoul
I’m currently on vacation but I needed to get back here to bring you this post before it’s too late – a quick review of the Spiced Christmas Tea by Marks & Spencer.

This tea is pretty straightforward – it’s… Read More The Fes-TEA-ve Season: Spiced Christmas Tea from Marks and Spencer
To be very honest, this review is more for me than it is for anyone else, because Kyoto in Autumn was a time-limited afternoon tea and I went on the second last day so it’s pretty much over by now. But, I do love anything Japan-themed and after the disappointing afternoon tea from Pan Pacific,… Read More Afternoon Tea Review: Kyoto in Autumn @ Four Seasons
It’s December which means that I can play Christmas music for my whole commute and no one can say anything! And more excitingly, it’s time for another tea advent calendar! This year, I opted to get the tea advent from Fortnum & Mason. I think I’ve tried only one of their teas before this, so… Read More The Fes-TEA-ve Season: 2022 Fortnum & Mason Tea Advent Calender
Friends, I have finally finished all the teas in the Renegade Tea Taster Set! One day, I’ll go back to that first post and update it with links to all the reviews but today, let’s dive into the last tea – Georgian Breakfast. I generally like black teas and I actually have a place in… Read More Tea Review: Georgian Breakfast by Renegade Tea
This should be the second last tea in this Renegade Tea sample box! It’s certainly the last oolong, anyway. Here’s what the Renegade Tea Farmers have to say about this tea: “Red Sunrise has an intense orange colour and the aroma of fresh tobacco. This well-oxidized oolong has the flavour combination of sweet fruits and… Read More Tea Review: Red Sunrise by Renegade Tea
I was talking to my cousin about the difference between milk tea and royal milk tea when I realised that I’ve not written a post on this topic! I thought this would be fairly easy to write, given that I own a book called “Black tea bible” but as it turns out, milk tea isn’t… Read More Tea 101: History of & Types of Milk Tea
We’re now counting down to the last three teas in the Renegade Taster Set! This is the last green tea – Tulip Garden and here’s the tea description from Renegade Tea: Tulip Garden’s recipe got an upgrade last year – we tweaked the process to make it more floral and complex and we think we succeeded… Read More Tea Review: Tulip Garden by Renegade Tea
