Today was an epic mail day. I got my Cyber Monday orders from Crimson Lotus Tea and Misty Peaks. In my Taiwan Sourcing order a mistake was made and I was sent 25g of tea instead of 75g. Today I received the replacement 50g along with a 25g free sample.

I also received my Whispering Pines order today. Wildcrafted Da Hong Pao, Golden Lily, and regular Da Hong Pao along with a sample of Ailaoshan black tea. The Wildcrafted DHP is utterly mindblowing – and this is coming from someone who’s not a fan of most roasted oolongs.

Yeah I need to try that Wild DHP

LuckyMe said

Let me know if you want a sample. It really is an amazing oolong

That is sweet of you! Maybe we can do a swap sometime :)

Sure thing, my cupboard is sorely out of date but I did receive some recent shipments from Taiwan Tea Crafts, WPs, Tea from Vietnam, and Verdant. PM if interested and I can put together some samples.

Mine is a bit out of date too! I will PM you :D

I got my Yunnan Sourcing order today, even though it was a Sunday:
- Spring 2015 Fu Shou Mei Feng Qing Black Tea of Yunnan
- Yi Mi Ren Wu Liang Mountain Yunnan Black Tea Spring 2015
- Spring 2015 High Mountain Red Ai Lao Mountain Black
- Celadon Gaiwan
- Plus a free strainer (I forgot to include it in my order and when I asked Scott, he put it in for free since it didn’t cost a lot – how generous!) and a free sample of Da Hu Sai Village Wild Arbor Black Tea of Yunnan Autumn 2015

On top of that, I got a lot of other stuff coming in this week:
- My Xmas tea sampler from the 52Teas Kickstarter
- A tea swap from Ubacat
- A tea swap from a non-Steepster friend in Alberta
- A tumbler from Teabook

Best of all, there was a big tea box from Davids Tea that came in this afternoon…. with my husband’s name on it. Hmm, I wonder why he would be ordering tea in December? ;-)

Yesterday’s teamail was epic. Delicious Harney & Sons Assam from Nicole, my Whispering Pines order, and Chocolate Chai & Jabberwocky (more Whispering Pines) from another Steepster.

I came back from a weekend trip that included stops at Ten Ren and Teaism to find the 52teas holiday sampler waiting for me. Woohoo! Of course, now I have nowhere to put all this tea… Time to get creative!
