Hello TeaFolk

Referred by members at a shaving forum. I have a lot to learn. Will spend some time in your forum. Appreciate the venue.

Regard,

Now there's an interesting image. But if you do, drink Matcha. If it spills, just use it as shaving cream!

Hi All,

I am also new to this forum...but I did NOT find this from a shaving forum (reading that made me laugh...who knew there was a shaving forum...I will have to google that one!).

My husband drank tea (lipton) with his grandparents...he got me started. I have a tea buddy at work (mornings as a part-time engineer). We drink lots of different things...flavored stuff and more (mate vane and thai blend from Teavana, rooibos, assam, etc). I love blacks and reds sweetened a little (stevia) and lots of time with half and half, too.

I found out about matcha and Japanese green tea within the last year. I was looking for a tea that I could drink without adding any sweetener and matcha and greens sounded like just the thing. I LOVE matcha and Japanese green tea and drink it in the afternoon and evening. Now it seems like if I am not looking to order my next tea, I am looking for my next piece of teaware! I so enjoy my own little tea ceremony and think that the little mind vacation of preparing the tea and then really focusing on the flavor of the tea is a huge part of the joy of tea for me.

I found this forum about a week or so ago and have been enjoying looking in here..great posts and awesome pictures!

Happy sipping,
Dreamer

My Dh has lurked on that forum- he now shaves with a razor that uses blades and with shaving cream that he whips up the old fashioned way- and what a close nice shave he gets!

ok back to tea....

Thanks every one for the warm welcome.

The shaving forum in question is Badger and Blade.

http://www.badgerandblade.com/

It has become quite a large forum with some very knowledgeable folks. One thing that I notice is that they like nice things. They have recently opened sub forum called "The Cafe'' dedicated to coffee and Tea. Most of the contributors prefer Japanese or Chinese style teas.

This all started because I was fed up with my dribbling teapot. So I sought recommendations. I like most of the teas I have tried, but tend to prefer the black teas in the British tradition. One of the respected members referred me to TeaChat.

If you want to improve your shave (ladies too) give B&B some lurk time

Kind Regards,
Mike

Welcome Mike!

(I have a membership on Badger and Blade, too, although I can't remember the last time I took part on the forum.)
