Zealong black tea: very similar to a Taiwanese Ruby black? – Exactly what I thought. But smoother.
But I have to say that the photo doesn’t look anything like the Zealong black. Neither the leaves nor the […]

Well, Ken, this is a big topic.
When you say that tea doesn’t have to be that expensive, then the question is whether it actually IS expensive.
In my opinion, most tea is extremely affordable. If we’re talking […]

Thought I’d share my personal Easter picture with you all. Taken at the rise of the full moon last night. Enjoy your long weekend!

This is a great photo! Thank you for sharing it with us.

Thanks. It was a beautiful night and shortly after I took this shot, a customer stopped by my house for a chat and a cup of tea. A good start into Easter, really.

I would agree. Enjoy your weekend!

yaya replied to the topic What level of price mark-up do you think is reasonable? in the forum All About Tea April 7, 2012 17:32

I’ll start with a few comments to @jackie‘s answer:
While it may seem easy to compare the prices of unflavored teas online, I’d say it is mostly impossible to do so. The only cases where it is possible (within […]

That question isn’t that strange. They do grow tea in Malaysia, but almost all of it is sold to big teabag companies. Proper tea shops wouldn’t have any of this (they’re actually semi-offended if you ask for it).

I’ve just returned from another two days in KL, spending most time sitting in teashops and sampling some of their teas. What a great way to pass some time! Unfortunately, my arrival day fell on a Sunday and […]

@peter: While the idea sounds good at first sight, I’m not convinced that it will work as you envision. The situation might be different in North America, but here are a few thoughts from my perspective.

Let me share a few experiences I have collected over the last couple of years (since I started my own ‘tea-of-the-month-club’).
Serious tea drinkers would not join a club like this where they have no influence of […]

Just a tiny correction:
Ripe (shou) pu-erh DOES change its flavour with time. The transformation isn’t as pronounced as with raw pu-erh, but time works wonders here, too. That’s also the reason why old ripe […]

Ken, just a quick comment regarding Ronnefeldt: you don’t actually have to go as far as Frankfurt, there’s a store in Rosenheim, just 45 min away on a train, that offers most of their selection.

Has it been really more than a year already? I did the proof-reading for the magazine from issue 2 onwards. Time has flown by, I would have sworn that it wasn’t that long ago…

Well, this sounds a lot like other tea shop experiences I had in Germany. Us Germans aren’t known for bending over backwards in the name of service.

It’s funny how something as normal as trying some teas has to be paid in our western world. Sitting down to sample some tea is almost a pre-requisite for any visit of a tea store in Asia. And still, it’s the very rare occasion to find this outside of Asia.

@jackie: While this tea is the first black tea that will (hopefully) be more widely available from New Zealand, it is by no means the first black tea produced in NZ.

Not to worry about the gender question. Judging gender online is like playing Russian Roulette – and about as pointless.
