@xavier Have you ever seen an infuser that you can put down without needing a separate saucer for the drips?

@xavier they want to create their own Portaferry blend. That’s where they’ll be growing their tea.

@xavier No. If he had @lazyliteratus and @peter would all have written back to the prince immediately.

Indeed I would have, I’m that gullible.

Promising you money and no tea? So wrong.

Yay! You’re here, @Xavier! My question – put more succinctly is – is there a definite trend toward flavored teas over orthodox choices? Especially more recently, and its their still viability for the niche market?

Thanks @gingkoseto – I think @xavier and @bram would find this interesting too. Are you saying that (artificially) expensive tea makes the consumer believe the tea has got to be worth more and taste better?-
People seem to have the intuition (me include, though I’m often, but not always able to correct it) that price is based on honest markers.

i guess most price inflation in this country is not due to dishonest, but due to charging high service fee, or making package more expensive than fee, or having high operational cost due to advertisement costs. a $20 tea could easily be honestly worth $100 if the shop were opened at the 5th ave. in NYC, and the owner would go bankruptcy if they…[Read more]

@xavier Teavana didn’t respond when I asked by twitter, I guess they aren’t doing a good job with looking at their mentions there.
