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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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. <br /><br />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.<br /><br />So, hope you enjoy. Feel free to leave a comment if one comes to your mind. <br /><br />If you found it too virtual, you can also visit the shop located in <u><strong>715 Chaussée de Waterloo - Galerie Bascule - 1180 Bruxelles</strong></u> for a warm cup of tea.<br /><br /> <div style="text-align: center"><img src="http://otea.blogspirit.com/images/medium_munnar-tea-plantation.2.jpg" alt="" style="border-width: 0; margin: 0.7em 0;" /></div>
