@lazyliteratus I just found out today that Club Med (a company specializing in holidays in camps) is making a 12 days/9 night trip to Sri Lanka called Heritance Tea Factory and there you can follow the whole tea […]

Not sure where this image originally comes from. I saw it mentioned on a 2008 post. Anyway, I suspect we’re looking at a forgotten pic of one of the Beasts of Brewdom boys: @lazyliteratus @thedevotea or @lahikmajoe

Time to catch up with the latest posts today from @lazyliteratus and @jopj – I glanced over them, saw they were excellent as usual and thought I’d save them for some tea blog reading tonight. The time has come!

You know what @iheartteas – needing to add more people to the list, just shows how many wonderful tea people we have met. @teapages and @lazyliteratus know well that they are good tea friends. We tea drinkers are […]

Love the pics here in this older article in the NYT – all the boysz remind me of our Boys of Brewdom; @lahikmajoe @lazyliteratus, @thedevotea et al. Actually one of them looks a bit like Tony of Chicago Tea […]

My dear @lazyliteratus I much miss your blog. I know you’ve been busy and not too well, but I thought I should let you know. It’s a like a warm smile on a cold winter day. Or like eating hot soup after a trek through rainy hills. Or like eating ice cream while watching the news.
There, I’m out of “poetry” – over to you!-
Rest-assured, I’ll have something up by Saturday or Sunday…and an attempt at catch-up. Followed by a round of apologies.

Great news. Let’s have a cup of tea to celebrate that.

Sort of thing @lazyliteratus might also enjoy, although well, I’m not sure about the tea ; )

That almost makes me want to drink it. Sharing!

from the latest blog post from @lazyliteratus – I just had to put this here too. So incredibly well done, and featuring a cameo appearance by the infamous @thedevotea. You can read more about Lazy’s tea blending experience here:…[Read more]

Yeah, this is all kinds of laugh out loud funny! I would vote for this video to win that silly video contest the US Tea Council does every year. This is going to be a favorite of mine.
Nice shirt, too!

I would submit it…but it has nothing to do with “tea health benefits” like their bylaws state. hehe

lol – @lazyliteratus – it wasn’t all that recent, 1841 I think was. East India Company. Robert Fortune. Greatest historical corporate theft ever. Tends to make those tea brokers a little jumpy these days…

Something for the Beasty Boysz aka the Beasts of Brewdom perhaps? @thedevotea @lazyliteratus @lahikmajoe ? Tea list needs extending though.

“The list needs extending”? It needs to be a proper list. At the moment it’s a head or tails situation.
My minimum requirement is ten choices for an afternoon tea (Japanese teas do not get counted). And I have a speciality tea shop at the Barbican already on my list.

Can’t stay long, have just checked through the latest posts. Allows me both to travel in time with @thepurrfectcup‘s Sherlock Holmes post, to travel in miles to Temi tea estate in Sikkim with @lochantea . When I’m done I can fret about the horrors of tea with new member @origamimei, or dream about apple cinnamon cake with @liberteas or get into…[Read more]

Dashing through Tea Trade on my way to somewhere. Excited to see @lazyliteratus has a new post. Will read upon my return. Also must look at @liberteas Jun Chiyabari review, because it is one of my favorite teas!
Anyway, just wanted to let you all know that I’m thankful for everyone on here. You all make this place what it is, the most interesting…[Read more]-
Hey Jackie: I can see why the Jun Chiyabari would be one of your favorites, it was sublime! An excellent tea.

Glad to hear it. I’m grateful you have a place like this for us to hang.

So 50s…
Thanks for the post.And @lazyliteratus, I don’t think we have less attention span, it is just that they understood too much verbiage isn’t that efficient.

@lazyliteratus is looking for Russian tea on the forum. The real stuff, grown out there, not a fashionable blend. It got me reading about Russian tea and then I saw this painting by Timofey Myagkov:

Totally want a samovar, too. But they’re waaaaaaay outta my budget. And I don’t have a boot.

Apart from the samovar, this could be anywhere in Europe in the 19th Century.

Have been thinking of an alternate history for tea. What if Anna Maria Russell and Robert Fortune were actually lovers? Maybe Robert was sent to China as more of a banishment because of his liason that worked out well for the East India Company?
Okay, I know he’s 30 years older than her, but still, with a some creative license, we might be…[Read more]

I like where your head’s at, @Peter. And considering they made Queen Elizabeth look young in the movie “Golden Age” (when – in actuality – she was, like, *SIXTY* during the time of the Spanish armada)…creative license is authorized.

I think that @thedevotea would make a suitable Robert Fortune (all fired up, determined to find some decent tea at last) and Anna could be, uhm…well, I don’t know… any takers?
Anyone? Anyone at all?-
No, @thedevotea already has a role, he is Charles 2nd Earl Grey.

Of course, there is also this modern take on the dashing adventurer himself — or is that just another @lahikmajoe sighting?!

Gosh it is @lahikmajoe .Exactly how he looked when we saw him in Munich.
And the picture – it was taken on one of those devilish days in ”Poing”
That’s an insider joke-
Before I ate all that cheese maybe…

You all are so special. Thanks for the chuckle this morning
