A Mild Rant About $1,000 Tea
At the risk of seeming a bit insensitive, I’m going to go out on limb here. I’m going to go so far as to say that, if someone can get you to part with $1,000 for a cup of tea, they deserve your money. Perhaps you’re not sensible enough to be carrying around such large… Continue reading

On Perfect Tea: The Latest
When I say that I’ve written about the curious notion of perfection in a cup of tea more times than I can count I might be exaggerating just a bit. To say that I’ve written about the topic more times than I’m going to count is more like it. I’ll compromise, more or less, by… Continue reading

What ConsumerLab.com Wants You to Know About Green Tea
If you look at this nifty chart, you’ll see that the interest in green tea – at least as measured by Web searches – peaked in early 2005, dipped a bit over the course of the next few years and has been mostly on the rise since then. It’s also safe to say, though I… Continue reading

Tea in Strange Places – Guatemala
With all due respect to the good people of Guatemala I have to admit that I don’t know too much about their country, aside from the fact that it’s located in Central America and it’s well-known for its coffee. By some estimates, Latin America accounts for about two-thirds of all of the world’s coffee and… Continue reading

Tea Caddy Spoons Demystified
I’ve been writing about tea for almost eight years now and until recently I hadn’t heard of a certain little gizmo known as a caddy spoon. Or maybe I just forgot. But I don’t think so. In any event, it’s probably no surprise that this should be the case. I’m just making a semi-educated guess… Continue reading

Are Americans Abandoning Coffee for Tea?
If you’re a coffee drinker, don’t take this the wrong way, but I’d rather lick a sidewalk than drink a cup of coffee. I’ll probably always be a devout worshipper at the altar of tea. But even so, I can’t help but be a bit skeptical about the notion that seems to be cropping up… Continue reading

The Pros and Cons of Sun Tea
It’s kind of sunny here in my part of southern Arizona right now, so much so that grown men are weeping and the trees are bursting into flames. Perhaps I’m exaggerating just a bit, but what better time to revisit the topic of sun tea, something that was touched on several years ago, in these… Continue reading

Tea vs. Coffee in India
Statistically speaking, if you drink tea, there’s a pretty good chance that it was grown in China or India. If it weren’t for China, India would be the world’s top tea growing nation, and between the two of them they grow rather substantial quantities of the stuff. Which might be why the growth of coffee… Continue reading

Monthly Tea Gadget and Offbeat News Report VIII
Let’s start with the offbeat news this time around. Does it get any more offbeat than breast milk in tea? Hard to say. I’m not sure who Mylene Klass is or what her claim to fame is. But apparently she’s well known enough that the British press is abuzz of her recent revelation that when… Continue reading

On the Adolf Hitler Tea Kettle Controversy
Let me say, right at the outset, that the day (or days) in which the Adolf Hitler Tea Kettle Controversy erupted must have been kind of slow on the news front, to say the least. The whole big frenzy seems to have started sometime in late May. Or as Time magazine reported, the fuss got… Continue reading
