A cup of tea in Holland

by alecs » Apr 17th, '11, 08:50

Greetings to all of you,

Even if I have read many posts of this forum since a long time ago, I have recently decided I should also officialy join it:)

I am from Romania, and living for 3 months now in Kaatsheuvel, NL. Since I've arrived in Holland I haven't seen anyone interested a little bit in tea (for me Lipton is NOT tea) so if there's anybody here from around Tilburg, please let me know.

I drink all kind of tea, my favourite being Sheng Puerh (2007 YiWu Douji) and Sencha (Marukyu Koyamen Tsubokiri). I'm no longer a beginner, but this road has no ending and I can enjoy every step.

Everybody enjoy your tea!
Alex

There are a few TC members from Holland. Does Romania have a tea culture? That is an area of the world that I've been curious about. It's nice to have you, hopefully we'll see more posts! Welcome!

Thank you for the greetings.

Unfortunately, in Romania you cannot find a lot of tea lovers or a tea culture.
There are however small tea groups, with experienced and passionate people. One of them in the city where I come from and of which I'm still a member, you can check their blogs if you want:

You cannot understand the language, but enjoy the pictures.
