Namaste !

Hello virtual void. Welcome to a blog about Tea. Yet another one? Yes - there's probably a healthy colony of tea blogs and sites out there. For one thing, it took some guesswork before finding a reasonable name related to tea for this blog that wasn't already taken by all the other tea connoisseurs, tea drinkers.

So what's O'Tea? It's just Indian tea, Ceylan teas, Chai (the third word being for the Tea+Spices that you find in India). It sounded neat. To me.

And the point is? Besides talking about tea, if you're reading this you'll probably have as good a chance of unraveling that question as I do.

But the original idea, as I sit here and drink a darjeeling high-mountain 2nd Flush, from one of my Indian Kettle or tea pots, is to write thoughts on teas, and present you my tea concept located in Brussels, Belgium - and reviews on what I find or happen to think of while sitting in front of a computer being woken up by the morning's pick of tea.

So, hope you enjoy. Feel free to leave a comment if one comes to your mind.

If you found it too virtual, you can also visit the shop located in 715 Chaussée de Waterloo - Galerie Bascule - 1180 Bruxelles for a warm cup of tea.
