I'm a tea-aholic and LOVE LOVE LOVE drinking it all day long. Although my tea staple is English Breakfast, I enjoy experimenting and tasting the wonderful varieties and flavours that can be found.
T2 is like walking into a candy shop (but for tea drinkers). You almost expect Willy Wonka to appear and tease you with a blend of this and the aroma of that ... it never ceases to amaze me the wide ranging flavours that can be found.
The brand and packaging is vibrant and inviting as are the tea accessories; the beautiful teapots, strainers and cups laid out like toys inviting you to buy.
BUT it's expensive. If I'm after a gift for someone who appreciates and drinks tea, I'll head to T2 however, for my day to day tea drinking I have to admit I stick with supermarket brands.
What is fantastic is the T2 Brew Bar - I've been to the one at the QVB. Such a great concept. The original blend Chai and Gorgeous Geisha would have to be my favourites.
