I (heart) Tea

Perhaps it's the cold that won't go away or all the British things in the news these days (King's Speech, William & Kate's nuptials to name two big ones) but I am tea crazy right now.  Can't get enough of the stuff....
I'm a fan of Harney & Sons Fine Tea and Mariage Freres but the new kid on the block that's caught my eye is Bellocq. They were a show stopper at the gift show in January. This little gem out shined among its competitors with sunny packaging and a strong product.   Made with full leaf organic teas, they have white,  green, black, oolongs, pu-erhs, and herbal variarties.  Created by a former Martha Stewart Editor/Stylist, her simple yet effective tea canisters already feel like a classic. But don't take my word for it, check'em out:

They sell gorgeous tea accessories as well like these lovely paper filters to use as DIY tea bags.  

Happy sippin'!

Live large,
