The Friday Roundup is a weekly collection of five of my favorite blog posts from around the world. It’s my little way of getting the word out about all of my favorite tea blogs. Is there someone I’m missing? Let me know about it in the comments below!
“Tea is for Everyone” by Chan Sin Yan
Gabie from Tea End blog posted a review of a book that I really enjoyed. Her thoughts pretty much sum up everything that I loved about it. I love that she gives us her favorite chapters. Make sure you check out the video with a shout out to yours truly.
Crimson Lotus Tea 2018 Daydream Sheng Puerh – February 2020 Review
Micah from The Weekend Sessions wrote about one of my favorite sheng puerh teas. Not only does it have an awesome wrapper but its seriously tasty too! I love reading a review of a tea that I have enjoyed so much and seeing the same tasting notes that I experienced.
