It was an excellent mail day at the House of Priss y’all. My Yunnan Sourcing Cyber Monday order came (it was a BIG one) – you can see a really bad pic on my Instagram at: http://instagram.com/p/wzaXPlQx-G/?modal=true

And my Tea Urchin flight came as well and it’s here: http://instagram.com/p/wzalZywx-c/?modal=true

Great mail day!!!! Did you just order a bunch of samples from Tea Urchin or do they have a sampler pack?

I got a order in today from Teavana but I didn’t open the box since hubby said it had my Christmas gifts in it. So I wrapped it up and put it under the tree. I should have a DAVIDs Tea order coming in next week too that I will wrap up as well. Christmas is going to be awesome :)

Got my Kusmi order last night! It was small, just Troika and St Petersburg. It’s my first-time trying any of their teas, so I am stoked!

They have great teas! I LOVEEEEE the Anastasia tea. I’ve only ever been into their store, but they have an awesome website and good rates and stuff, too.

I would kill for a store! The sent samples of three other teas and I just tried Anastasia this afternoon. It was a really great earl grey. They do that sort of thing very well, no?

Kat said

I think the only store stateside is in Manhattan! (The other is in Paris, I think). If you’re ever in NYC, though, it’s also very close to a David’s tea location and in a really lovely (albeit very— ritzy) part of town.
They do do traditionally flavored blacks well, which is well suited to my tastes. Interestingly, I feel like they push their other teas more, which is really too bad. But I love the Anastasia. I’m not a huge Earl Grey fan, but it’s different enough to make me happy and very light. It was my favorite tea for a long time (all summer), and still might be.

I am super picky with my Earl Greys too. I don’t care for the overpowering flavor of some bergamot blends. I am definitely interested in their traditionally blended black teas, too. I would love to see what their store looks like!
