I've been staying in Latvia for the past two weeks and I've had a healthy dose of tea while I've been here.

I was browsing the Internet for some tea items and noticed this website called 52teas. These people make artisan teas based on suggestions by viewers. It's a really neat concept as it offers some community interaction. People request a type of tea, and then each week 52teas blends tea with the other ingredients. The tea I ended up having a date with was the Vanilla Date Flavored Black Tea with Coconut.

Tea hand-rolled into balls? Seems a bit tedious to me, but they add to the artistry of the tea. Black Dragon Pearl Black Tea is artisan tea. It is hand rolled and is nothing but black tea.

I had picked up Teavana's Golden Monkey Black Tea about a month ago, and I thought that it would be good to try a different batch of the highly prized golden monkey black tea. The local tea shop for me is Gong Fu Tea, and they have No. 314 Monkey-Picked Black.
