Tea bloggers working with tea companies, self promote here!

We’ve worked with some great tea bloggers that can be found on here. There are actually a couple of old threads that discuss this topic. So you’re definitely not the only blogger in this site. I did some searching for you and combined them into a list for your convenience.

Oolong Owl here! http://www.OolongOwl.com

US based tea blogger. I have been working with various tea companies doing tea reviews for them. I enjoy trying new teas, recommending teas to others and taking tea photographs. My mascot, the Oolong Owl Tea Owl, are always hanging around, stealing a sip of tea!

I’ll be starting to do reviews of tea on my site soon as well – at www.christinavasilevski.com.

Right now, I do book reviews (mostly SF/F) and the occasional movie review. But when I start my tea reviews, I’ll be doing something slightly different: I’ll be doing “Tea and Books” features!

When I review a tea, I’ll discuss what books or fictional characters I think are most reminiscent of this tea. Would a tough warrior drink lapsang souchong or green jasmine? Would a fictional chef go for a black tea or an herbal?

I’m really looking forward to starting up!

This week I am doing teas that evoke spring, including some Japanese yummies from Yunomi.us, a Green Oolong from Temple Road Tea, and a floral tea from Shang’s Tea.

I like doing theme weeks, sometimes I focus on a specific type of tea or tea shop, others I just pick teas that have something in common and have fun with it.

Of course there is always a bit of geekery stuffed in the nooks and crannies :P

Articles lined up: An article on Matcha and what the health benefits actually are as it seems a lot of websites make the information up.

Also waiting for review samples of:
Eco-Cha – Jin Xuan 2014 Oolong.
Higher Living – Various flavours in Teapee (similar to Teapigs I think).
Kromland Farm – Rooibos.

I’ve worked with tea companies in the past writing reviews in exchange for samples. At the moment I’m trying to also incorporate information as well as reviews to give my blog a more all-round focus. I also allow guest posts from time to time.

My reviews are always honest and I try to be as informative as I can. Some are contract reviews while others are from tea I have purchased personally. If anyone has anything they want to see on my blog either review or information I would be happy to oblige/consider :)

I do most of my tea reviews on my own, but I did get some great oolong samples from Tea Vivre (I’ve gotten one out of the 5 out). Holy crap, those leaves fully extend and are really something to see… beautiful and tasty.

My reviews (and tea blog in general) is very photography-centric, since I’m trying to learn photography to become semi-professional as a side-business.

It’s been a wonderful learning experience (I even built a light-box for photographing tea!) but being sure to have great photos with each post makes my production time a little longer than I’d like __. Setting up shoots, editing, etc.

Still, I’m really excited for the spring / summer so I can try some outdoor pictures.

SororiTea Sisters is a blog that posts at least 2 reviews per day (or at least, I try to! Sometimes life gets away from me, but, usually, you can count on 2 reviews per day.

I just started my tea/food blog called A Taste of Mz Priss. I generally include a link to a song that I hear in my head when I taste the tea. I have friend who tastes colors – I hear tea (and sometimes wine – but I almost get a song when I drink tea). My blog is here:
