We drink real tea round here…no cheap and nasty teabags for us! Which makes us somewhat tea snobs…but believe me, once you taste quality tea, there is no going back. So when I saw this new product from the Melbourne tea company, More Tea, I just had to order a couple. Because the very stylish […]
This city never fails to surprise me…in a suburb which I have visited and driven through hundreds of times, there turns out to be a wonderful gem. Rose Hill on Barkly is a gorgeous circa 1915 Edwardian house which is hidden down a local Box Hill street… And I had the opportunity to discover this […]

We love finding new places to buy real tea, and a few months ago, we discovered that there was a tea company in Geelong! Leaf Tea is a locally owned, independent business, started back in 2002. They now sell via their two shops…one in Ryrie St, Geelong and the one we visited in Pakington St, […]
