		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know about the reading habits of other people but when I read magazine or newspaper articles online, one topic leads to another and yet another, and the ease of clicking on links means I often end up quite a ways away from my original search.  And so it is with tea-related  browsing and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At the end of the previous post (Part 2), I concluded that for almost $50/lb, one could have a really top grade Jasmine leaf tea instead of the $48.95/lb Jasmine Pearls tea that turned out to be a poor choice, value-wise and flavor-wise.  If it is Jasmine Pearls you&#8217;re after, seek out a better quality [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Holiday Teas&#8221; are now on store shelves and online.
For me the &#8220;tea&#8221; that usually comes to mind this time of year is a tisane I used to order from Germany.  Being a tisane, there were no actual tea leaves; the base was made up of fruit bits and hibiscus.  Among several ingredients used to enhance [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve made several references to China&#8217;s Rose Congou, a naturally scented Black tea that not only tastes good but represents great value at around $10-15/lb (about a dime or 15cents a cup).  Like Jasmine scented teas (usually Green but sometimes Oolong and occasionally even Black tea), any blossoms or petals remaining in the tea have [...]]]></description>
