Looking forward to Afternoon #Tea at Cafe Luc, I just found out they serve Mariage Freres :)
Just made a #tea date for Friday afternoon - something to look forward to!
Sad to miss #WorldTeaExpo this year, but look forward to following all the expo updates on twitter!
Q. for all the #tea drinkers and chefs out there - what teas do you cook with? What do you make? Looking for ideas...
Replying to @twoleavestea
I do indeed! RT @twoleavestea There's just "something" about drinking hot #tea when it is raining and thundering. Do you agree?
Just found a new #tea place on Farringdon St. - To A Tea. Currently enjoying their monkey picked oolong http://twitpic.com/1jnvwy
Enjoyed watching @aeyalgross buy all the tea (and teaware!) in Japan!
@joiedetea We didn't make it to Cha Ginza but it came highly recommended - if you make it to Tokyo I'd love to hear what you think!
@joiedetea What part of Japan did your friends move to? If you make it to Kyoto, try Ippodo too!

@AIYA_tea Yes I would say a darker, more oxidized oolong #tea. In any case it was delicious :)
Replying to @aiyatea
@AIYA_tea I would agree, I guess this particular tea room has devised their own categories :)
Replying to @aiyatea
@AIYA_tea One thought the #tea in question was a lightly oxidized black and the chinese language was incorrectly interpreted...thoughts?
Replying to @aiyatea
@AIYA_tea Thanks! That is what most of us thought, but we visited a reputable tearoom that classified both oolong and blue #tea separately
Joined in a lively debate about blue #tea, does it exist? Is it Oolong or something else? Some say it is actually black..any ideas?
@joiedetea Yes, each experience has alone been worth the trip, our hosts have been so gracious. Getting ready to posts more pics! #tea
