As somewhat of a tea addict (I just bought a kg of loose leaf tea last week) I think this sounds like a great product. I actually watched the video not expecting much, and I was pleasantly surprised by it's features and interface. If you ever make a home version, and I stop being a poor student, I would definitely be interested in something like that.

Personally, My one complaint would be about the selection, I'd like to see more types of tea/specific regions (Darjeeling, Assam, etc.) relative to the amount of 'additives'. But that's probably just me being a tea snob :). Is the selection up to the owner of the premise, or do you decide the stock for them?

That's great feedback. Thank you. I hope you can come try it for yourself but I'm glad you liked the video. We're open to suggestions regarding selection. We've already replaced several less popular ingredients and will continue to listen to our customers. No plans for a home unit yet, but we let you order your favourite blends online to enjoy at home. Excellent point about allowing the venue to select ingredients. We have allowed them to create a house blend, but no venue has requested ingredients yet.
