Fake Ratings!

Just wanted to add my 2 cents here- I don’t mind that companies/ people affiliated with companies post steep times,reviews, etc of their teas, just as long as they fully disclose they are affiliated with whatever company it is.

For example, Stephen Wise, the founder of Utopian Teas, has added his reviews to Steepster, however he starts off the posts with “As the head of Utopian Tea…” then goes on to explain why its his favorite/where he sourced it from.

I respect this kind of steepster activity, as we all are notified immediately that he is affiliated with the tea company.
