  • Beautiful blog in Swedish I enjoyed looking at this recent post, a review of Bang Dong Sheng Puerh by Yunnan Sourcing.

  • Thunderbolt Tea aka Benoy aka Darjeelingtea on twitter liked these videos so much he posted them over on his site too. He wrote a wonderful blog post to accompany these short films, interesting to see his thoughts and views.

    Lovely Sunday photo of the Lochan Tea family – Can’t wait for their new web site, so I can order more tea!

    It feels like spring outside, not fall! Not that I’m complaining, mind. I’ve had a large mug of my old-time favorite tea, and a slice of chocolate walnut cake. I’m ready to take on Sunday πŸ˜‰

    Borrowed “The Empire of Tea” from the library – and only afterwards realized it was of course the book @lahikmajoe mentioned several times in his blog posts.

    Awesome! Do they sell right there on the spot too? Also, did you see John Harney at World Tea East?

    • They sell tea in the tasting room (as well as lunch). I’ve already made up a list of teas I’d like to get! πŸ™‚ I did meet John Harney at WTE and he invited me. If he’s free he said he might take me on the tour. Which would be awesome, but he’s a busy man so I’m really ok if he can’t. Bu that would be pretty awesome.

  • This text was supposed to accompany the above vids, for some reason couldn’t get this in:”Interesting video in two parts of “GEPA”s tea journey to Darjeeling. GEPA is Europe’s largest Fair Trade organization.”

    (Ms) Scarecrow looks awesome, my chocolate walnut cake turned out perfect, and the Nepalese tea was just right. I’d say that makes me one happy lass’.

    What kind of things did you chat about?

    It’s a typical fall thing to do, everyone puts up decorations in their yards – anything from Halloween scary stuff, to pretty autumn decorations with colorful leaves, pumpkins etc.
    We made a really awesome scarecrow, it’s a girl!

    That’s when you chose not to buy it? πŸ˜‰

    • Not at all. I decided not to buy it when I understood that my German was not good enough yet.

    Drinking Darjeeling, and thinking about building a scare crow today. Could be a fun thing to do, right?!

    • I’m drinking Darjeeling and NOT thinking about building a scarecrow.

      Well, now I am. Because you mentioned it. Am thinking of you building a scarecrow. But not me.

    • Sounds interesting at least. But I’m not very good with the whole arts and crafts thing. πŸ™‚ Tea, now that’s a different story!

    • Why do you want to build a scarecrow? Beware, perhaps, it will become a scaretea.

    Yes, they should have made it into a picture book, right? Who needs words, with a cover like that ha ha.

    Next time you should probably go in there armed with two big pine sticks. Pull up your sleeves, reveal muscles. Grunt. Vigorously rub sticks together, start fire. Toss bunch of tea leaves into basket. Hold over flames. Ignore burns on hands. Dry leaves but keep grunting. Done! There, that’ll teach ’em. Nothing artificial now about […]

    Thanks @yaya for mentioning this on @thepurrfectcup’s blog post. I wanted to make sure that @lahikmajoe sees this, and the @’s don’t always work in the blog posts.
    ”Der Teezauberer” which translates into ”The tea magician” sadly not available in the English language at present.

    • Really sad as I don’t think that right now my German is good enough to read it. πŸ™

    How does that come to “4” @xavier? Baking cookies – writing blog post – updating here and…. then? Not saying that it isn’t impressive. Indeed it is!

    You’re too fast for me with your blog posts. How can I keep up? πŸ˜‰ Have to run and get some food and then I have some lovely reading to look forward to later tonight.

    I owe you now? Maybe that’s why I forgot to tell you πŸ˜‰

    Glad our tea time doesn’t end up like this. Quirky little tea vid for my lovely Tea Traders:

    Perfect. We’ll do a swap – I’ll make some pie (gluten free!) and you send me down some chuck roast, ha ha.
