@lazyliteratus Yeah, there was a spammer who sent out dm’s. We got rid of him but he’d already “invited” several people including @peter. You and he are both in the running for the Prince’s big money now.

@happygaiwan – Chris, have you seen this post by fellow Canadian blogger @supermoon10? Thought it would interest you too, not just because you live in the same country…

Anyway…I agree it […] -
Jackie started the topic Who grows tea in the United States? in the forum Tea News and Information 11 years, 8 months ago
Once again @worldoftea has written an interesting little post that I’m going to link to for everyone here. I have a nagging feeling that there is someone else on the West Coast, but I can’t think who. Does anyone […]

Jackie commented on the post, Flavored of the Week, on the site Steep Stories 11 years, 8 months ago
I think there’s a trend of flavored over orthodox because flavored offers near endless sipping experiences to the consumer, whereas orthodox is more restricted. For every orthodox tea there are thousands of […]

Interesting article in Business Insider.I can see Honest Tea’s argument that they can do better because they are now supported by big dollars but are they really still true to their original philosophy? Can you be […]

Oh, thanks for posting @thepurrfectcup. It reminds me that we haven’t yet resolved our meetups, must have another think. What’s in the Valentine’d blend by the way?

Just their chocolate tea and rosebuds. I had some at a friends house a few weeks ago and had to pick some up when I ordered last week. 🙂

Thanks @gingkoseto – I think @xavier and @bram would find this interesting too. Are you saying that (artificially) expensive tea makes the consumer believe the tea has got to be worth more and taste better?-
People seem to have the intuition (me include, though I’m often, but not always able to correct it) that price is based on honest markers. So better quality, more rare, harder to get/produce etc. If the market was honest this would usually be a justified reasoning. Unfortunately this is not always the case. I would expect that the placebo effect…[Read more]

i guess most price inflation in this country is not due to dishonest, but due to charging high service fee, or making package more expensive than fee, or having high operational cost due to advertisement costs. a $20 tea could easily be honestly worth $100 if the shop were opened at the 5th ave. in NYC, and the owner would go bankruptcy if they…[Read more]

Just so that everyone knows: my dire morning tea situation from yesterday has much improved. It is no longer dire. I bought 4oz of Vanilla tea in another city which will tide me over until my half a pound of Upton Tea order arrives.

But the water won’t be hot enough to steep the leaves later then?! How about one flavored tea and one unflavored tea, to suit both palates. (PS: I thought your colleagues don’t drink tea?)
-
Some of them do (I am slowly attracting them to the leaf side) and pre warmed Thermos are good for keeping water hot.
I first did the black teas and then the green I had.

Nope, doesn’t count either @iheartteas it’s supposed to be posted as an actual “update” ha ha. I appreciate the gesture though my sweet. By the way, same here actually! 🙂

@thedevotea I see no current update about drinking tea at the moment. That old one doesn’t count. What was then might not be now.

I will beat this @Peter to the Algerian fortune!
