3rd Annual 12 Teas of Christmas from 52Teas - Pre-Order NOW.

Don’t miss out. I might be biased, but I think this is the best tea-related gift of the season.

I’m so torn! I’ve been trying the vast majority of teas since the last sampler, since I got into teas shortly after Christmas last year… so I’m worried I will have tried (or own!) nearly everything already. :/

I think these are also GREAT gifts for people in your life who are maybe new to tea too. Gives them a little present to open every day for 12 days. Everybody seems to have so much fun with these.

I am also conflicted. I have subscribed since the release of the last box. I know I have tried every tea that will be in there except for day 12. And the day 12 tea will be released either the week of Christmas or the week after … so, do I need to have the box this year? The only real benefit to me, besides the fun of the box (and they are a lot of fun!) is that I’d get the 12th day before the December teas are sent to me … and then of course, there is the fact that I always do the 12 days countdown on the SororiTea Sisters website … BUT I am also doing a 12 days of christmas tea exchange through steepster … so maybe I could do the 12 days of christmas exchange article about those teas instead.

WHAT TO DO?!?

I think the only thing I would really miss is everyone else enjoying their box and missing out on the fun lol I am holding off on this for now though.

LiberTEAS said 2012-11-04 00:52:23 -0400

Yes, that is a big factor. I don’t want them all to have the fun. BUT … I know I will have tried all these teas, since I’ve been subscribing for a while now, I am confident that there won’t be a tea in there that I have not tried except for day 12, and day 12 will be in my December tea package. So… I don’t need this. Maybe I can use this 30 bucks for my online art class that I want.

Just do it – I know I keep going back and froth here myself.

I’m trying to sucker my roommate into sharing one with me so that this problem of likely having tried the vast majority of the teas in the sampler (since I attempted to swap for most blends I found appealing) is less important. Also, she likes mint, and I suspect at least one of the teas is likely to be minty!

Do you ladies have any guesses of what might be included? I can probably make some guesses based on the last half of the year, but I didn’t know about 52teas in the earlier part of the year..

LiberTEAS said 2012-11-04 12:54:29 -0500

OK… so in the course of the last year, I’m guessing Graveyard Mist will be in there, Cotton Candy, Butterbeer … it’s too early for me to think back to some of the other teas of the year. LOL

LiberTEAS said 2012-11-04 12:58:53 -0500

I’m hoping that the Lime Green Jell-O is in there, too. Just so that I can buy some of the reblend.

Babble said 2012-11-04 13:00:01 -0500

Are all teas in the box available for purchase afterward?

LiberTEAS said 2012-11-04 20:49:15 -0500

@Rachel: last year, he reblended the teas and sold a limited quantity of the teas that were in the box. On the first day, he’d release the tea that was in the first day sampler in limited quantities … then on the second day, he’d release the tea that was int he second day sampler … and so on. I don’t know if he’s going to do that again, but I hope he does, in case he does reblend the lime Jello…

Do I need this?! The eleven BEST teas of the past year…which were those? I definitely didn’t buy eleven teas from you, so at least some things will be new…

I just placed my order. These will be my first 52teas, so I’m very excited!

Exciting! These will be my first 52teas as well. Looking forward to giving them a try. :)

Fun! I’ve never participated before, so why not this year?

I haven’t tried 52teas yet. Very tempting…

Small
LiberTEAS said 2012-11-04 12:57:18 -0500

For those of you who haven’t yet tried any 52Teas (seriously? there are those who have not?) I HIGHLY recommend this box. It will give you a good sampling of the best this past year has had to offer. Some of those teas that sold out instantly.
