@xavier – You can certainly continue to write in your Word Processor, and even use it to add formatting to your posts. It just has to be added into WordPress the right way. Watch the short video tutorial called <a href="http://teaconomics.teatra.de/wp-admin/admin.php?page=video-tuts&vid=paste-from-word" […]

@xavier Of course I’m interested. Now that you’re asking 🙂 Both The du loup and Je t’aime sound delicious! I think their website is difficult to navigate though as I can’t tell at a quick glance what’s in a tea. It took me a while to see what’s in each tea, and then I googled them to get more detailed reviews. These seem to have no fruit,…[Read more]

@xavier Are you writing your posts in WordPress or in Microsoft Word (or some other word processor). The stuff you are seeing is html and css code. When you write posts in a word processor and then use cut and paste to put them in, all that stuff comes with it if you don’t do it a certain way.
Take a look at this post of yours in the backend…[Read more]

I wonder what kind of flavor they add in Morocco? Interesting how it travels from Ceylon to Germany to that North African nation. I have heard of gold tea before, can’t remember where. Saw an interesting article about it. Not sure I really want to ingest Gold though, however edible it’s claimed to be. Great find @xavier.

@xavier, I think we are all trying to get the answer to this question. We have so many “closet” tea drinkers as well as many who are in denial about drinking tea, although they do drink it. I would ask you about […]

Oh no, @Xavier. I never worry about burning my bridges. It’s just that to slam them would seem ungracious. It would seem like I had an axe to grind. Well, I do, but it would seem like I was lambasting their tea […]

@xavier that is a brilliant question, no doubt we’ll see a blog post about it at some point. Anyway, always good to start the day with one of Robert’s entertaining new posts.

That must be Zealong. You know @xavier – it’s been around for a few years now. That nice German guy, Jo from New Zealand sold a small batch of black New Zealand a couple of years or so ago. Here’s Zealong’s main website. The trouble about that tea was, that it’s always been pretty expensive. Interesting that MF is now buying their tea and selling…[Read more]

I like the idea of small growers getting a chance to become price fixers, not just price takers. It’s an interesting initiative. Thanks @xavier.

What’s new with everyone? We’re happy @xavier is back from his vacation. Thanks for the postcard! Enjoying our summer here, just relaxing. Less relaxing is waiting for the arrival of new teas today and tomorrow. Come soon and save us from mediocre leaves!

A science/tea article that @iheartteas mentioned on twitter. Something that @bram might enjoy reading. And @xavier perhaps but he’s probably lapping up the sun on some tropical island at the moment.

– the stream cut off my reply. Must mention that to @peter. Anyway, here’s the rest of my it: ” no cinnamon or other spices in them which is good. Is it possible to get small sizes? They are so expensive but oh, is their packaging nice.”
They have spiced flavoured teas too and no, they don’t sell small sizes but if a couple of people here manage to agree on one or two teas, I can buy it/them for you and send them over to all the interested ones.
Yes, I realize they do have spiced teas (yucky) but the good thing about the du loup and je t’aime is that they do not have any spices, like cinnamon etc. in them. Is there a tea from here you’d like to try? I could order that and we could do a tea swap?
I gathered all their teas a while ago with the info I could get and I just put it online.

My proposals is for all of you. Don´t hesitate to look.
Wow, that looks like a fair bit of work. How come the company doesn’t make it a lot easier to navigate their teas. I nearly gave up – and would have given up – if I hadn’t been so determined.
