My first order from the Persimmon Tree! Couldn’t resist the 5 teas for $5 and free shipping. Why did they have to bump up the thread?? ;) Excited though! Got white and black tea samplers.

Total came to just a touch over $60, so I got free shipping as well. This should keep me busy for awhile.

placed my second order from DAVIDsTEA. they have sooooo many more things on sale and I wanted everything, i went on the site to just ‘BROWSE" and ended up purchasing a Lychee and a Peach Blooming tea for $1.50 each and then bought the new Redberry tonic and a tin to go with it. I really was intending on buying the tea of the month as well which is Queen of Tarts but it was either that or the redberry tonic and i went with that.
I can’t wait to see what samples i get as well, its sad but i love there samples and is probably one of the most exciting parts of buying from them. they are sooooo darn cute!

My Order From Whispering Pines Tea Company
2 ounces Dark Chocolate Oolong
1 ounce Wuyi Rock Oolong
1 ounce Blackmint Blend
1 ounce Manistee Moonrise Spirit Blend

STRAWBERRY & VANILLA GREEN 50g Loose Leaf Tea
TSUGARU GREEN (apple green tea) 50g Loose Leaf Tea
UME VERT 10 Tea Bags

Didn’t mean to order tea bags, just searched for ume vert, added to the order. They were out of loose leaf so I’m stuck with that. Oh well. Very excited for the happy packs!

My last two Verdant orders:

Eight Treasures Yabao, 7g
Imperial Breakfast Summer Blend, 1oz.
got Yunnan White Jasmine as a free sample!
$10 off coupon, total: $4.50

Laoshan Village Chai, 1oz.
$5 off coupon, total: $6.00

Their rewards program works really nice for the small orders I like to make.

Some French teas for my annual stock replenishment.

From Mariage Frères (all new to me except Pleine Lune, hence the small quantities):

Richmond 100g
Rose 100g
Pleine Lune 500g
Wedding Impérial 100g
Thé des Impressionnistes 100g

From Dammann Frères (I can’t be the only one to read that as ’Damn Frères, surely? All new to me except Coquelicot Gourmand):

Coquelicot Gourmand 300g
Nosy Bey 100g
Mélange des Chérubins 100g
Oolong Châtaigne 200g

I can’t believe neither offers at least a small sample of some cheap tea with every order.
