Awesome!

The first tea I’d make if I won would be GM’s Orchid Temple Oolong. That pot needs an oolong to show it off. :-)

I would probably make the White Peony from Pearl Fine Teas first, myself. :)

This is a great contest, guys!

Truly a masterpiece! The tea bundle is unbelievable.
i look forward to making a blend with lemongrass, rosehips and ginger. Simple yet hits the spot after a long day of grading papers

The first tea that I would drink would be coconut puchong because I’ve been looking for a good coconut tea to drink and puchong is supposed to help with weight loss, which I really need. I’d also be ridiculously excited about the matcha set because I’ve been trying to have one for years (but dude, they’re expensive!) and then I could let my friend who’s totally into the tea ceremony perform a proper one for me and all my friends.

Yakki, I’d be leary of any “weight loss” weight loss claims- especially one that pits one tea over another. All true tea pretty much has the same effects due to the combination of caffeine and L-Theanine. Beyond that, increasing your calorie free, fat free, sugar free beverage intake can in theory help you lose weight because it fills you up so you eat less food.

The first tea I would make would be the Organic Verbena Mint tea from either Mighty Leaf, or the little shop down the street in a loose leaf version(which in my opinion is superior to the ML one).. touch of honey… mm

Reminds me of all the times my mom made me mint tea with honey to calm my stomach as a kid :)

That is pretty easy. I would make Pu-erh Vanilla Mint and revel in the awesomeness!

A full matcha set is only the beginning?! I’d go straight for that one :) This is an amazing grand prize. Just looking at all those teas makes you feel a little dizzy…

My mouth is watering, my ears are ringing, and my head is spinning. That’s what you do to me Steepster. My heart pounds when I think of you and my palms get sweaty at the sight of you. If I happen to win the contest the first tea I would brew is my pu-erh from the Green Tea House. I can imagine watching the leaves unfurl through the glass sides.

Thank you so much steepster!! You Rock!!!

That’s quite an assortment. If I won, the tea would arrive by mail, so I wouldn’t get it until late in the day. So I’d probably have some Stress Reliever from Trea Frog in the evening and Nepal from Andrews & Dunham the following morning.
