Sometimes we're all in need of an extended tea break, I'll be back

"I like my tea to taste like a stable, my scotch to taste like burning dirt, and my woman to taste like trouble."

~Andy Bothwell, Astronautalis

The Universe in a Cup

"We had a kettle; we let it leak:
Our not repairing made it worse.
We haven't had any tea for a week...
The bottom is out of the Universe." 

~Rudyard Kipling

I am a tea enthusiast. With this blog, the universe in a cup, I will be posting tea reviews and tasting notes, interesting tea-ware and rituals, as well as a look into the tea industry itself, and maybe the occasional interview.


I have high hopes for this blog. I am not a professional writer so please forgive any mistakes that I may will make.


Stick around, maybe you'll find something interesting.
