Here is the guest we had at the Sugar Tree Cottage today for his own sort of "Tasting Tuesday" event.  We were sipping our tea on the porch while he was dipping his break in the brook. Sure hope he often decides to take his tea time here at the cottage!

Tea Tasting!

Stop by the Sugar Tree Cottage anytime today between 10am and 2pm and try some teas!

Earl Grey

Folks who are new to loose leaf tea sometimes wonder if there really is a difference between the grocery store tea bags and loose leaf tea. And yes, there absolutely is!  A fellow tea consultant helped to show this comparison. 

At the top of the plate you see the contents of a bagged tea purchased at the grocery store, and at the bottom beneath is the Tealightful Earl Grey loose tea.

Note how tiny the particles are from the tea bag. What you are getting in these are "fannings" or tea dust, what is left over from the full tea leaf. 

Now look at the Tealightful Earl Grey. That’s how tea should be. We know you can taste the difference, but wanted to show what really is in that tea bag
