What do you think of the Steepster Select Tea of the Month Club?

We’re excited too :)

Awesome! So excited to have you. I checked out your tealog and I think this will be good for you. It’s gonna push you a little, give you some stuff that’s kinda different than what you’re used to, but not so far that everything will seem unusual.

Which is OK with me. Teas like Oolong and what not are not teas I wouldn’t seek out to try on a whim. So I figured as a surprise, getting things shipped to me to try kind of works out better because it’ll open up the realm of tea and give me chances to try something else.

If you’re not available to signup now, you can shoot an email to [email protected] and I’ll put you on the waitlist to make sure you have a spot asap if it happens to fill up.

Thanks! I’m in Canada, and on the list to be notified when shipping internationally is an option.

What do you mean exactly? Including samples in the box, other than the three teas already in there?

Yes. I liked the original idea of samples because it would 1) Make one a more experienced tea drinker, 2) Allow one to find a few staple vendors or teas without having to pay a lot in shipping fees. 3) Expand one’s tastes and horizons without taking too much of a financial risk (if you don’t like a specific one, there are still a bunch more to try).

I do also like this idea of 2-3 ounces of the “Best Of,” however if you threw in a few samples along with that that would be awesome. Of course that might mess up the economics of the whole things but it would certainly sell me. If that were a problem, an alternative would be perhaps to drop one of the three teas in exchange for a bunch of one-serving sized samples. Just some ideas. Either way I already signed up :)

When putting the box together it’s a balance of what we can support financially while still making it awesome. But we like the sample approach too.

but no matter I will be a member by Sat any ways…

We’ll do our best to accomodate any allergies. We haven’t picked anything with coconut yet, but I could see it being a possibility. If that were the case though, we could easily arrange something special for that month since coconut probably won’t come up that often. Just make sure to email us and tell us of the allergy when you signup.

Awesome thanks

Dairy probably wouldn’t pop up too often, but green tea would be more of an issue…hopefully later on we’ll be able to grow and offer different types of boxes that might be a better fit.

I agree that I’d be on board if there was a pre-announced theme.

However regarding your too much tea comment, they are sending out 2-3 oz of tea total, with 3 different types of tea which means you would receive enough leaves to make 7-10 cups of each tea. So that fits with your 10 cups or less.

Ah, ok, I see now… for whatever reason I thought it was 2-3oz per tea, not total. That’s more reasonable for samples for me. But then I reach the point that $19 for 2-3oz of tea, even very good tea, for a tea I may not end up liking, it’s a little steep for me.

The price is tricky, but we’ll always try to make it the best deal possible and certainly worth your money. We want you to keep subscribing and we know you won’t do that if it’s not worth your money.

For your 2nd concern, each tea will indicate where you can buy it online, and we’re even looking into the possibility of offering a discount code in later boxes. Hopefully that can be arranged soon.
