Steepster's Ultimate Holiday Tea Contest!

And really, if there’s a second prize, I’d settle for just the sorapot! That thing is awesome (and totally out of my range).

I would go out and splurge for some Tieguanyin Anxi Monkey-Picked Charcoal-fired Late Spring 2009 Organic at TeaTrekkers in Northampton MA! It’s about time for me to replenish my cupboard.

(Sorry for the repost, I wanted to make this a proper reply to the topic)

Found out about Steepster through the Damn Fine Tea folks… looks like corkd but for tea, which sounds fantastic. Looking forward to finding new teas.

This contest is the cat’s pajamas. If I win, the first pot I’ll brew is the last of my Andrews & Dunham Nepal from Series 1. Then I’ll bask in the glory of my new batch of A&D Series 1 included in the prize package!

Good luck to all!

What I make first would depend on the weather. The colder it is, the more I want chai, so if it were a day like today, I’d start with the Golden Moon Kashmiri Chai. If it’s balmier, I’d have to choose between the TeaFrog Darjeeling or the Andrews & Dunham Ceylon — probably the Darjeeling, since I’ve got some good organic Ceylon in my tea cupboard right now, but I’ve been out of Darjeeling for a while.

If I win, the first tea I’d made would be any kind of Earl Grey I could get my hands on, because it’s that time of year for a good hot cup of Earl Grey. And then I would play with the matcha set

This is the tea-lover’s holy grail! I’d be interested in brewing up a pot of the Golden Moon Kashmiri Chai for my first treat. Then, I’d move onto a gunpowder green.

First tea I will make is the Nepal black tea from Andrews & Dunham’s Series 1

Peppermint tea. It’s my one true tea. Never needs sugar, always refreshing.

I’d make Tao of Tea Jade Oolong! So much floral lilac character. Mmmmmm.

If I won I would drink any kind of black tea. That teapot looks unbelievably gorgeous.
