Jackie started the topic Roasting your own tea? in the forum Tea Conversations 11 years, 11 months ago
Have you ever roasted your own tea leaves? I saw a post on G+ recently from someone who had panned their Tie Guan Yin at home because they wanted a heavier roast. Interesting experiment, something I’ve never […]

Wait – I have to digest this, so much information. What’s stuck in the brain now is – NaNoWriMo, a body part that didn’t quite stand up to the test, real love, Butiiki Teas, Japanese Puer, David, Chariteas, […]

No, not quite like that. I’d be floored if a friend or acquaintance offered me a cup of loose leaf tea. That just doesn’t happen, at least not where we live here. If one of those people offered me a tea bag I’d […]

Yes, your spammers are pretty imaginative @bram. However you could reduce their entertainment value if you close comments on older posts. On his recent blog post @peter mentioned how to fight spam by closing […]

Usually I say “good morning” to everyone – checking things on here is one of the first things I do at the start of the day. This time I’m going to say “good night.” Just finished writing most of my blog post about member Achievements, ready now for final revision. So, off to bed! See y’all in a few hours time.

Saturday morning here..what is everyone up to? Are all our bloggers still recovering from the terrible weather recently? Or getting ready for the holidays so you’re out shopping? We miss you! @azzrian @liberteas and @thedevotea are the hardy ones, still (very much) on the front page. Hope to see you all blogging away soon. In the meantime, no post…[Read more]

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!

Thanks @thedevotea – please try again. It’s rare now that we get the “out” messages but can you copy your stuff before hitting “post” just in case? Just in case it’s so incredibly valuable that we don’t want to miss it. I can tell you right now, I don’t want to miss it.

It was incredibly valuable. Unfortunately it has been lost forever. Or until I get around to doing it again. Unless you can find it somewhere on the server- it’s title is ” Third Party Tea Scorn”

@riccaicedo takes an active part here on Tea Trade, so even though he’s not a Tea Trade blogger, he’s very much part of the community. Check out his latest post about Emperor Saga – the first Japanese emperor to drink tea, it’s interesting:

Thanks for the mention, @jackie. I’m happy to be part of the community, and I’m grateful to you and @peter for your efforts.

I retweeted his post.

Thanks @xavier, I own you one (^_^)

I read it. And given the name of the blog, I think that’s quite a big deal.

Perhaps you should explain @thedevotea that you’re not what could be described as “an ardent admirer of Japanese teas.” So, rest assured @riccaicedo that he must like you to go read it 😛
-
“not an ardent admirer”?, @jackie ? Au contraire? The entire country has managed to turn out a staggering variety of teas that I have assiduously tasted, and found they range from quite horrible to very horrible*. They also invented the idea of throwing things in tea that taste even worse than the tea itself in an effort to improve it. I admire…[Read more]

@thedevotea you are always so clear and so absolute in your likes and dislikes.

India is going nuts over chocolate! I hadn’t really given India’s chocolate consumption much thought, for some reason I spend far more time thinking about their teas. However, I just saw this article about their […]

I’m testing something but it does look good doesn’t it? And awfully familiar I hope. Plenty to choose from for these chilly days.
