Tea Trade

Sorry to hear this.

But I understand, things change and we have to change as well.

Once I thought about quitting my blog and my small tea store in Colombia, mainly for financial reasons.

Now my situation improved, so I continue them as a hobby. For most tea bloggers, maintaining their blog is probably a luxury.

I have a problem in my country, there are too few tea lovers.

So it’s hard for me to find tea friends and do this sort of tea parties. Mostly what I do is tea tastings for complete beginners.

That means […]

Very cool. I want to give it a try, although it doesn’t seem to be easy to execute.

I somehow knew that you would include genmaicha in your post.

Good job, it was very entertaining!

There’s a tea website in tea trade called “Alquiler de coches en Mallorca”, which means “car rental in Mallorca”.

It’s highly suspicious.

“Nano te amo” means “Nano, I love you”.

I haven’t tried cáscara yet, seems like it isn’t popular in my country.

Maybe you do need to show some kind of experience, so perhaps getting a job as a waiter, or in a hotel?

Keep applying to different tea companies and don’t give up. Also, if the tea companies that you mention […]

There is very little tea scene here, because of the dominance of coffee.

Bitaco’s tea field is close to the city of Cali, famous for salsa music. I was born there, actually.

If your sister arrives at the […]

Very nice, I sometimes receive tea from friends that live abroad but it’s not very often.

A hand-written letter is something very special nowadays. I don’t think I can write one, my handwriting is awful : )

Sorry for the long delay, it was only until now that I watched the movie.

Yes, God is a child in the movie and he drinks what appears to be tea (doesn’t show how he prepares it) in metallic teapot and cups.

A Japanese friend told me that she had done one, but not sure if it’s the same as it was on olden times. Basically it’s about finding which teas belong to which regions.

Hi Xavier

I like the new design : )

Just to add a little more info to your post, the Japanese were exporting during that time because it was more popular abroad.

As you say, they started with Chinese […]
