Aloha from Hawaii!

I'm new here, and just wanted say hello. I've just recently switched from coffee to tea, and the variety with tea is absolutely awesome!

Thanks for the warm welcomes!

In Hawaiian, tea would be ki. If you wanted to say hot tea, you could say wela ki (vela key).

Mahalo, or thank you.

My first few batch of teas were tea bags from the supermarket. I wanted to try loose leaf tea, similar to Chinese restaurants but better. My quest for tea took me through China Town recently. There was a lot of shops that had different kinds of tea, but a lot of those shops were really busy, with lines going out the door. I managed to find some secret gunpowder green tea, and a fujian oolong tea. I really like the green tea!
