Small order from Capital Teas Ltd.
Borsapori Estate Assam
Samples of
Berubeula Estate Ceylon
Marco Polo

nice to have a company with cheap local shipping $4.00 or free over $35, so I don’t feel obliged to go over my budget just to make it feel worth it. Really quick shipping I got my order in a day and a half.

Oof, a pound is a lot of tea. I mistakenly got sent a pound of tea once and it was kind of staggering.

Two swaps came in the post. I sometimes forgot about ones, so it’s like getting surprise teas! Which makes my day more fun. :)

Just got my first Mandala order of their Phatty Cake, Wild Monk, Milk Oolong, and Golden Gong Ting with a nice little hand written note and Noble Monk sample. Fastest shipping I’ve ever had from a tea company — I’m very impressed (and excited to try them out!)
