I’m interested in swapping for samples of some of the most popular teas on Steepster now, namely some Whispering Pines! I am also interested in samples of black teas from TeaGschwendner. I am only interested in ~2 cup samples, and am happy to swap samples of anything in my cupboard.

I also have these teas available in larger amounts for people who might be interested. Willing to split the larger amounts.
52teas – Pumpkin Toffee Dragonwell, ~1.5oz
Fauchon – Raspberry Macaron, ~50g
Sanctuary Tea – Dragon Flames, ~50g
Kusmi – Petrushka, ~100g
Golden Moon – Snow Sprout, 1oz minus 2tsp
Verdant (Blends Club) – White Peony Gin Tonic, unopened 1oz

Definitely interested in the Fauchon. I’ll message you. :)

I’m interested in trying ANY tea from David’s Tea Carnival Collection! I missed that one. :( Check out my cupboard and let me know if you’d like to set up and trade!

From the Carnival Collection I have Root Beer Float, Pink Lemonade, and Cherry Snowcone. Interested?

I’m interested in trying all of them! I’ll follow, so we can PM each other. :)

Putting these here on the off-chance someone would like to swap, rather than purchase. They are also available in the Sales Stash thread, if you’d rather go that route. In terms of trade, I have pretty much no interest in any rooibos or honeybush, and I’d rather not have anything with the sugary bits pre-loaded, but otherwise I’m fairly game.

52teas:
Caramel Apple Honeybush, 2oz -1 tsp
Red Velvet Cake Mate, 1.75oz -1 tsp

DavidsTea:
Cotton Candy, 1.76oz – unopened

I am VERY interested in Cotton Candy from DavidsTea! Anything in my cupboard in available to swap :)

Mm, I’m not seeing anything that would appeal, Rebekah. Sorry about that. Is your cupboard totally up to date? Most of the DavidsTea stuff tastes too artificial for me, unfortunately, and Republic of Tea and Teavana are within easy reach.

I also have some O Christmas Tea and Underway, both from Captial Teas. No worries if you’re not interested :)

I put this box on the Sales thread…no luck. So, I’ll be happy to send this box off to someone who would like to trade. Here is what is in the box:

Tiramasu Oolong – 52 teas – 1 oz
Monkey Fart – 52 teas – 2 tsp
Chocolate Malt – 52 teas – 1 oz
Cinnamon Delight – Souvia – 4 tsp
Gingerbread House – Souvia – 4 tsp
The Skinny – DavidsTea – 3 tsp
Smaug – 52 teas – 1 tsp
Vanilla Black – Simple Loose Leaf – 1 oz
Peppermint – Souvia – 2 oz
Rooibos Chocolate Almond – TeaDesire – 2 tsp
Perfect Carlos – Adagio – 1 tsp
Pistachio Lime – Fusion Teas – 3 tsp
Hot Cinnamon Spice – Harney & Sons – 2 tsp
Cinnamon Stars – Tea Gschwndner – 2 tsp
Monk’s Blend Decaf – Darlene’s Tea Port – 2 tsp
Indian Spice – Harney & Sons – 1 tsp
Slim & Slender – Tea Desire – 2 tsp
Juicy Peach – Teajo Teas – 2 tsp
Puerh Vanilla Mint Organic – Zen Tea – 1 tsp
Napalm Ferret – 52teas – 2 tsp
GenmaiCHAI – 52teas – 2 tsp
S’mores Genmaicha – 52 teas – 1 tsp
Black Fuji Apple Cinnamon – not a clue – 2 tsp
Wonderberry Chocolate Truffle – Teavana – 1 tsp
Plum Oolong – New Mexico Tea Co – 2 tsp
Green Tea Leaf mints – Sen Cha – small closed package
Rise and Shine – Clipper – 1 tea bag
Cha Cult paper tea filters, Size S – maybe 90 of them out of a 100 pc box

I like dessert-type black and white teas, as well as unflavored black and white teas. Green teas are hit-or-miss, and I know I don’t like oolong.

do you still have this box? there’s alot of things on here I’d like to try. Any chance of buying the whole thing? message me!

You need to follow me. Then I can message you. But yes, I still have the box.

Hello all! I would really like to try some of the Bluebird teas before I place an order later in the year, so I’m SEARCHING to try any of the following teas (of course, I’m not sure if they will show up as seasonal teas or if they were discontinued already). One or two serving samples will do, if not more. I can swap, but please don’t go through my cupboard as most everything is only a couple teaspoons remaining that I’d prefer not to swap. I will send you a message with my swap list to set things up, if you have any of these. US only please. Thank you!

SEARCHING for samples of these from Bluebirdteaco.com (others I’ve probably already tried):
Chicory Dickory Choc
Lime Cola Guayusa
Guarana Chai
Mojitea
Mango Tulsi
Cherry Bakewell
Apple Strudel
Pear Drops
Monkey Chops
Love Potion
Strawberry Lemonade
Mint Choc Rooibos

I would like to try the Melon Oolong and Banane Chocolat! I will send you a PM.

NayLynn said

Added some more

I would be interested in trying the Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish-Green Tea (52teas) and Cinnamon Chocolate Brownie (Simpson & Vail). Is there anything in my cupboard you would be interested in?

NayLynn said

Yes, I will send a pm in the morning. Just tried 3x and it would not send got the “someone left the kettle on” message.

Okay, thanks!

Megan said

Are you still interested in swapping out some of your teas?

NayLynn said

Yes, love too. What would you like? I think the soonest I would send it is Monday.

I figured it was time for a small stash clearout before my massive Butiki order arrives. My measurements aren’t precise, but I’ve tended toward underestimating here:

No. 09, The White Duke (Bellocq) – ~4 tsps. (Full disclosure: this one’s on the older side and hasn’t been stored very well.)
Dragon Feelers (Butiki) – ½ oz. minus several tsps.
Momoko (Lupicia) – ~1/4 oz., with decorative tin if you want
Sweet Potato (Lupicia) – ~2-3 tsps.
Violette (Palais des Thes) – ~ 2 tsps.
Nannuo Shan Shou Pu-erh (Red Blossom) – between ¼ and ½ oz.
Guang Dong Phoenix Dan Cong Oolong (Teavivre) – 2 sample packs, ~2-3 tsps. each
Taiwan Monkey Picked Tie Guan Yin Oolong (Teavivre) – 2 sample packs, ~2-3 tsps. each
Passion Berry Jolt (Tiesta) – between ¼ and ½ oz.
Handpicked Autumn Tieguanyin (Verdant) ~ 3 tsps.

NayLynn said

I’m interested in Sweet Potato if you still have some. Not sure I have anything you are interested in but everything in my cupboard is available except Ruby Pie.

Oh my….is violette a violet tea???? I’ve been DYING to try a violet tea (and I don’t do flavored teas!) How do we swap? I’ve never done this before…. PM me so I’m not a public idiot…. :)

NayLynn—you’re very welcome to the Sweet Potato. I’d love to try Brioche if you’d be willing to part with a sample.

donkeytiara—yes, it’s violet! I’ll message you.

Hi everyone! I just took inventory and I have way, way more tea than I’m comfortable with. So, I’d like to do some uneven swapping, and mostly for tiny samples.

Here’s what I have:

Verdant: (mostly 1oz minus a couple cups)
- april showers
- birchwood herbal
- cask strength
- dragonwell bouquet
- elderberry herbal
- lemon licorice balm
- master han’s shu puer 2002 (sample)
- mrs. li’s shi feng dragonwell (sample, unopened)
- north shore puer (sample)
- peppermint bark
- puer tonic
- raspberry leaf herbal
- sarsparilla tieguanyin
- tulsi rooibos herbal
- vanilla orange rooibos

adagio:
- earl grey moonlight (sample)
- guanabana (sample, discontinued I think)
- custom – smokey grapefruit earl grey
- custom – ginger earl grey with a tiny bit of lapsang

DavidsTea: (mostly sample sizes)
- big apple
- buddha’s blend
- earl of lemon
- elf help
- evergreen
- exotica
- just peachy (unopened)
- lime gelato (unopened)
- movie night
- sweet apple cider
- pumpkin chai (several ounces)
- white chocolate frost (several ounces)

Lupicia:
- sakurambo vert (halfish of a 50g package)
- ripe mango oolong (almost full 50g)
- lapsang souchon (almost full 50g, kinda old, but still smells as strong as ever)

Misc:
- Tealuxe creme brulee (sample)
- Butiki grapefruit dragon (tiny sample)
- Cantata starry sky (weird russian tea of indeterminate age…)

These are the ones I actively want to get rid of/decrease amounts of, but you can also ask about anything in my cupboard and I’ll see what I can do.

I’m mostly interested in dessert puers, and flavored or straight blacks or oolongs. (Especially from Whispering Pines or Lupicia. And if you have any Port or Master Zhang’s Genmaicha you want to trade I would probably love you forever or something. :)

Edit: If anyone is concerned about my lack of swap cred, I am fine with shipping first, and having you ship after you’ve received mine. Most of these aren’t teas I’d be particularly sad about losing…
