How to get free tea samples

Hey Everyone,

I am new to drinking tea, I have only tried a few flavours from David’s Tea including; Forever Nuts, Pumpkin Chai,and Toasted Walnuts. I am loving all of them, and I was wondering if anyone knows how I could get a bunch of free samples so I can try more, before purchasing a whole package. I also live in Canada.

Occasionally, tea companies will come on here and offer free samples. I think that Teavivre offers free samples, but I’m not sure about that. Most companies offer free samples with purchase. There are a few companies that offer samples at a very low cost, like Upton Tea Imports.

I agree with LiberTEAS – there are also some great threads on here if you do a search regarding samples – both free and very inexpensive.
Rare Tea Republic also has low priced quality samples as well as Della Terra with their 10 dollar try me packs.

Teavivre does have a sampling program on their website. And if you can get into a David’s store you can buy small quantities there.

If you have a local DavidsTea, they do a “tea of the day” and just stop in and have a tasting. What I did since I didn’t have a local Davidstea is I got my sister to go to her DT and get me a bunch of 12g samples.

Or purchase the sampler packs like the new winter collection http://www.davidstea.com/our-teas/tea-sampler-packs/the-winter-collection-2013

You can also use the power of this community and lookup the ratings of DavidsTeas are, see what others have said and buy from there.

Ones you try and didn’t like you can see if someone will swap teas with you here on the discussion forums.

I agree with all of the above. Fusion teas will send you blends if you review them on your blog http://www.fusionteas.com/ReviewOurBlends.html
