Official *What did you get in the mail today?* Thread!!!
I got this:
http://www.amazon.com/Chinese-Yixing-Handmade-Tea-Zisha/dp/B00E0DBL6K
and apparently it was the last one as it is now unavailable. It is so wee and pretty :)
I’m thinking this will be my shu pot.
I received my Teavivre order. They got me by offering buy 100g get 50g free. I bought Blueberry Fruit Tea, Strawberry Oolong, Unbridled Love Fruit Tea, and Apple Awakening Fruit Tea. I also received a package of 2 teas from Lovelylotus who shared them with me just so they would be consumed and I was happy to try them.
Got my Mandala order on Friday but just opened it today.
-1 oz sample of Smart Soak-awesome stuff. Cleaned out an antique teapot with it
-Sample of 2013 Noble Mark-really really looking forward to this.
-Sample of 2012 Year of the Dragon
-4oz of Noble Mark.
Bwahaha a much-needed teavalanche today! My Butiki package, replenishing my precious Maple Pecan Oolong and adding two semi-custom blends, plus a generous sample of Hello Sweetie that is making the entire room smell amazing. Seriously, if the smell is any indication I can see why people are so in love with this tea. And my brother just got back from Israel and brought me some fancy whole-leaf Wissotzky teas. I am such a lucky duck!
Just got back from my vacation to find four awesome swap packages!! Thank you keychange, Allie, TraceyC, and Dustin. You guys are all amazing!! I also got a delivery notice for my DAVIDs order.
Got an AMAZING package from aisling of tea/De today which included two huge tins of matcha and several matcha samples, a few other assorted samples, a practically full DT tin of Pink Passionfruit, approx. 50g of DT’s Rootbeer, approx. 50g of DT’s Southern Belle, and one of the white chocolate matcha bars!
Plus, as if that wasn’t enough, they included the most adorable stuff Polar Bear! Too kind!
(Downside if that I’m well over 200 again)
That sounds like an amazing swap. I have wanted to try Southern Belle for a while. I shall keep my eye on your notes (so basically what I always do) to see your thoughts on it.
I’ve had Southern Belle before, so I do have a note up of it already! Also, I can just send you some because now I have a ton of it. Also, you should look at the matcha samples that they sent me and see if there’s anything you haven’t tried that you want to. I don’t mind splitting them up!
Ooooh yay!! I shall go look now and let you know. Also, is there any of the Nina’s samples you want to try? I may put them into the teabox on its way to me but I can send you some samples if you like :)
Yay! We’re glad you like the bear, we just couldn’t resist him. VariaTEA, feel free to wander through our cupboard and see if there’s anything you’d like to try, we’re happy to share!
My order from Yezi Tea (which of course contained 4 oz of Jin Pin) and my order from Taiwan Tea Crafts! :) Yay!
To KiwiDelight: Hahahahahah!!!! That is exactly how I am going to view it from now on.
To Kat_Maria: Jin Pin is so amazing, isn’t it?!!
My roommates are never surprised when I get tea in the mail now haha.
Before they tried to hold me back (they threatened to freeze my credit card in a block of ice) but that doesn’t stop me!
I actually haven’t “bought” tea from a company in a while though. Most of my tea packages are from swaps and mystery packages and things :)
So a lovely thank you to MissB when she was cleaning out her stash, I bought a $25 Mystery Pack from her and all the teas smelled lovely!
And thanks again to shmiracles for a wonderful surprise :) I’ve got some rooibos/herbal teas from DAVIDs and some other fandom blends from Adagio!
