Bvumbwe Malawian Black Tea Group Buy

Hey guys,

I am organizing a tea group buy. It’s a hand rolled Malawian black tea. It’s actually incredibly rare to find an African tea treated with this level of care, so I think it would be really cool to try it.

Their MOQ is 3kg, so message me with any questions, and let me know if you are interested.
I have posted this group buy on my website, and have priced it at £7/$9.40 per 100g. If you click on the tea, you will be able to find a full cost breakdown on the right hand side.

If it costs less than the expected price tag (as the shipping and repacking costs are not 100% certain yet), I will sort something out.

If you want to participate;

Here’s their site (it’s the tea at the bottom of the page);

This tea used to be sold by What-Cha. Here;s a review of it from the Tea Necromancer;

For a while now, I have been wanting to organise the whole group buying experience, and create a place that we can go to for high quality, and secure group buys. It is still in it’s early stages, but the basics are there.

Its basically a platform where all those interested can vote on the teas that they would like to group buy, and we get in contact with all the producers, pick them out, and send out a selection of teas for you to taste and give us feedback on.

We also wanted to develop the group buy into something more permanent. So we are going to try to make it possible for you guys to repurchase the teas if you liked them.

If you want to participate in the group buy, and want to support us in organising future group buys, then please back our kickstarter project, it will be greatly appreciated!

Hey guys,

Thank you so much to everyone that has joined the group buy so far and has shown their support for our project both on Kickstarter and our website. I really am so thankful! It means to much that you guys like the project!

So far 6 people have supported the project. To bring you guys our first group buy we need to meet the MOQ of the SDatmewa tea estate (3kg). That means we are 1/5 of the way there! :)

I have spoken to one of the admins for the Tea sub-thread on Reddit, who had tried one of Satemwa’s puerhs. He only had nice words to say about it, so I think this should be a really interesting group buy!

If you guys are interested in the group buy, I would be really grateful if you participated. If you know anyone you think would be interested in the group buy (or project), please let them known. The more people participate the better!

I hope that you will choose to take part :) With your help we can reach our funding goal, and bring you lots more exciting group buys in the future!

Thanks again guys,

Sasha.
