Something Bazaar at T2!

November 15th, 2011 // T2 Drinks, T2 Enjoys, T2 Travels

We can’t help but smile as we reflect on the fun we had at T2 during September, a time we went – um how shall we put it? Completely and utterly bazaar!

The month was spent celebrating the spoils of recent travels to the magical and exotic east. With an itinerary that included the historically rich and cosmopolitan Turkey our traveling T2 team were awe struck by the regions mind-boggling landscape, quirky characters and vibrant bazaars… those colours, the sounds and mmmm that delicious mix of sweet and savoury tastes and smells! Our teams experiences were re-created at T2 stores all over Australia with an array of bright, dazzling tea wares and decadent sweet and spicy teas. And then, we got more bazaar! Along came the Afghan Tea Cyclist pedaling through the streets of Melbourne serving brews at inner city T2 stores. The bike, created and decorated by RMIT student and Afghan artist Aslam Akram was a perfect collaboration with T2 and brought urban tea lovers a tasty rare middle eastern tea experience. What a magic month… check out.
