“China Through the Looking Glass” now at the <a […]

Katrina that day, coming soon will be fantastic!

Oh dear Oh dear. Knowing penchant for tea education, I just might have ordered both the Assam and the Sencha and had both servers taste them. So sad when a good place goes bad due to lack of training. First rule […]

Well, this is the final installment and there are some additions and mentions I must include.

I think Linda Gaylard, The Tea Stylist put it very well in her recent post, I take the liberty of quoting here […]

Who doesn’t like a party?

Prior to attending WTE 2015 there were host of invites to a variety of “I Must Attend Events”.

There were the TeaLet “Off the Beach” evening gatherings as well as the WTE Networking […]

Dear readers, I am sure with all the postings this week about the various expo experiences you are hard pressed to read another. Well, sorry, but I must. And yes there are photos of tea in plastic cups.

<a […]

I am going to take the liberty to use the term tea equipment in the broader sense, to encapsulate all the interesting items I found at Expo this year.

We will begin with what I have deemed “My Expo […]

As usual you captured the events and excitement of the day with total vivre. I am a little miffed that my gracious “Red Bean Pie” offering for your early morning hunger was missing. So sorry that I was not able to […]

With so many teas to explore my first tea of the day came from Beth Johnston, Teas Etc.

For a number of years Beth has always been so generous, supplying Expo participants with a delightful morning […]

It was an honor having you beside me and having your shoulder to lean on. You did a fantastic job providing much needed information. So sorry I could not follow you around this trip as I think I missed much great tea.

Leave it to you to experiment quickly. Sounds like a good recipe.

Each year, after attending the World Tea Expo, I come away with an invigorated feeling.

Just attending reaffirms why I choose to be a part of this industry.

Yes, there is a numerous amount of tea vendors […]

Last evening, I received a notice that the United States League of Tea Growers is accepting memberships. I can happily say today I am a member.

Three years ago, in Las Vegas I had the pleasure of attending […]

Although I read this early in the day it has taken me awhile to respond. First being included and mentioned was not at all expected, Thank you Rachel. I take your mention as an honor. Though I do not consider […]

Xavier; I am not sure why the exhibit was titled as such and did not think to ask.
jopj wrote a new post on the site scandalous tea 9 years, 10 months ago

I had the distinct pleasure of attending the “Power Of Design” exhibit at Globus Washitsu last weekend.

Though recent weekend subway travel has become challenging with trains running at 20 minute or more […]

Xavier, unfortunately, I did not. I am saving that blending exercise for another time and another post 🙂
jopj wrote a new post on the site scandalous tea 9 years, 10 months ago

Upon reading this post on twitter I was dismayed about the statements regarding blending. As a certified tea blender I take issue with this negative simplistic description regarding blending, as tea blending […]

Bram, Thanks for reading. I have yet to really use this cup for drinking. I will, in the future, for a post, explore the vast collection of teaware I own and see if they affect the brew in any fashion.

Great to “read” you again. You have been sorely missed.
