    Wow, that looks like a fair bit of work. How come the company doesn’t make it a lot easier to navigate their teas. I nearly gave up – and would have given up – if I hadn’t been so determined.

  • Hmm..yes. I do agree with the – I presume – 5 foot sparrow’s opinion on chamomile.
    I suppose that it made for a rather more interesting flowery blend though.
    Just call it “digestive tea” or something like that.

  • Glad the loose leaf tea staff wasn’t off that day, makes up for the minimal service received. Well, to some extent anyway.

    Never tried tea with added sparkling water, you certainly make it sound tempting! Your pics are wonderful as always. May you have a very happy Holiday Season.

      Some are too green and others see it too black. 😉

    Yes, I realize they do have spiced teas (yucky) but the good thing about the du loup and je t’aime is that they do not have any spices, like cinnamon etc. in them. Is there a tea from here you’d like to try? I could order that and we could do a tea swap?

    – the stream cut off my reply. Must mention that to @peter. Anyway, here’s the rest of my it: ” no cinnamon or other spices in them which is good. Is it possible to get small sizes? They are so expensive but oh, is their packaging nice.”

    • They have spiced flavoured teas too and no, they don’t sell small sizes but if a couple of people here manage to agree on one or two teas, I can buy it/them for you and send them over to all the interested ones.

    @xavier Of course I’m interested. Now that you’re asking 🙂 Both The du loup and Je t’aime sound delicious! I think their website is difficult to navigate though as I can’t tell at a quick glance what’s in a tea. It took me a while to see what’s in each tea, and then I googled them to get more detailed reviews. These seem to have no fruit,…[Read more]

  • Actually, it’s a bit too late now because this Qing dynasty tea brick already sold. For yes, a cool 1.2 million. Pity I didn’t see this September article earlier. Might have zapped out the old wallet for this one: Wantchinatimes

    Now that sounds like a great idea to cut short the time waiting at a traffic light!

      A place to wait a long time without noticing because you are enjoying tea.

  • Jackie posted an update 11 years ago

    Great to see many interesting new updates here. Thanks all for posting links, commenting on blog posts and in the forum, as well as adding exciting new products to your stores!

    We must raise the standards of normality in The Netherlands! I’m glad you’re certainly trying Bram!

    Happy anniversary! 2 years already – on the one hand it seems time has flown by but on the other it’s like “haven’t you always been part of the crew?! And hasn’t that now been forever?”
    Love your posts, […]

  • Can Starbucks do for tea what it has done for coffee? Interesting, but all I can say we’ve always liked tea because we love the taste, not because we thought it would be a fashionable fad that could make us money.

  • Jackie posted an update 11 years ago

    Back under the sheets would be nice, even this cup of tea hasn’t really energized me yet.

  • ’twas about time matey! I could have told you that eons ago – anything bad must be due to the coffee.

  • Hmm…I see lots of topics both under Forum Categories (right hand column) and in the Forum link (top middle.) Do you have a link?

    @bram Wow, this is just brilliant! A strategic game to establish a trading network to get your Pu’er out. Must tell everyone about it! Also, tell us more about the game convention. What/where was it? Or did you already tell, and I missed all that?

    • No I did not tell. 🙂
      It was the same as last year, but then a year later. It also moved to to different Halls in the same venue. 3 large halls instead of 10 smaller ones (about 10% bigger this year). Unfortunately this means a lot more noise-problems.
