Some interesting tea items on eBay- things I never knew existed!

Hi all!

I am not sure how many of you are on eBay, but I am always looking in their tea category (http://www.ebay.com/sch/Tea-/38181/i.html). I am not usually looking to buy anything, just to expand my knowledge & see things that I never new existed! There is definitely a whole world of tea out there to learn about!

Here are a few interesting things I saw today:

The vitamin tea looks interesting, but not for $7 shipping.

Orange Pu-erh is kinda neat. LOL @ the “manhood” herb.

New Mexico Tea Co sells those orange pu’erhs. http://www.nmteaco.com/puer.html

I have one and haven’t had the guts to try it yet!

Me too! A friend gave it to me, but I just found out what it was a few weeks ago. At least it’s puerh, so aging it isn’t as much of a problem.

The orange stuffed with pu’erh is pretty good. You have just hit the tip of the iceberg on ebay’s listings. I even have a supplier over there that will source tea i can’t find listed on ebay.

I keep planning on trying the puer stuffed orange, just haven’t gotten around to ordering one yet.

Those are some really interesting finds. I love the tea bag hangers! I wonder if the plastic is reusable for other bags.

The Pu Erh in orange interested me a couple of years ago so I bought Golden Horse brand on eBay. It was the first Pu Erh I ever tried so I was new to brewing it but found myself loving the taste. It’s a great novelty to smash it up and decide how fruity you want your tea to be. :) I certainly recommend.

I love the picture on the tea block, very creative and cool! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks to mrmopar, my tea shop ordered the Orange Puerh and carries it at the shop now. People love it! For $3.95 you get a pot of the orange puerh brewed and they bag the remainder for you to take home. Good deal!(forgot to say that they bought the tea on eBay)
