A Tea Drinker’s Experiment with Milk
If you’ve read my ramblings at this fine tea site or at my own tea site then you’ll know that I don’t make any secret of my dislike for the practice of adding stuff to tea. Stuff like milk, cream, sugar, honey, laundry soap (just seeing if you’re paying attention) and so on. By the… Continue reading

Tea and Tea Blending – The Book
If you pick up the book Tea and Tea Blending expecting to read about the latter topic you might come away mildly disappointed. There are only a few brief chapters of this 151-page book devoted to the topic, but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth taking a look at. If you’re looking for more of… Continue reading

Tapping for Tea
I have to admit that the practice of finger tapping when tea is being poured is something of a mystery to me. Which probably makes sense since as far as I’m aware it’s a practice that’s primarily confined to certain Asian countries and most notably China. But when I ran across an article recently at… Continue reading

The Other High Tea II
After writing an article on some fine tea-related offerings on British Airways and a few Asian airlines I thought it might be interesting to revisit the issue of tea in high places. For starters, I thought I might see what some of the big name airlines offered. Not that I was expecting much, given that… Continue reading

To Dip or Not to Dip?
Just as I’m sure you might be able to draw conclusions about a person’s personality based on how they eat an Oreo, so too might you be able to analyze them by their preferences when it comes to dipping, dunking (or whatever term you prefer) things in tea, coffee, milk or whatever. I’ll say right… Continue reading

Does Your Tea Site Need A Makeover?
Back in the 70s I had some pretty fine bell bottoms, if I do say so myself, and some eye-catching silk shirts and a nice pair of platform shoes to round out any ensemble. I know fashions have a way of coming around and I don’t have any of those snappy duds anymore but even… Continue reading

Tea Is Just Tea
Over the last several years I’ve run across a number of articles that have suggested that tea might be the new coffee. I’m sure I’ll see many more as they seem to crop up rather frequently. Here’s one of the latest examples, a blog post from none other than the Wall Street Journal, titled Where… Continue reading

The Other High Tea
I don’t fly much anymore – not that I miss it. Given the state of commercial air travel these days I’d rather eat my own foot than have to fly somewhere. But some time back, when I was still jetting around every once in awhile, I recall taking a longish flight to somewhere – the… Continue reading
