I want to add this – please don’t anyone take this as a deterrent from posting! I love to hear your responses – and I do plan on putting all of them on the poll with the following exception: White tea (also Houjicha tea) – the primary reason is because these tea types are very bulky – and packaging becomes problematic.
But please – continue to list the white teas and/or houjicha teas you’d like to have reblended – because I DO take note of those and when I have them in stock, I will consider reblending them as Featured Reblends.
I didn’t post this to be a criticism or a deterrent to post those suggestions – only to explain why – when the poll is up and running, why those teas won’t be on the poll. I don’t want you to think that I didn’t ‘hear’ your request.
Thank you again – all of you – for suggestions – they help me shape my blending for the future!
Thanks! I worried that I might be coming off as combative, not my intention at all! I just don’t want you guys to think – after you see the poll – that I didn’t listen to your requests!
Not combative, of course not. Like I said, it’s nice of you to even offer us tea fans a say in this sort of thing… I don’t see many other companies doing that!
Tea and Scones
Bacon Sticky Bun
Blueberry Coconut
I’m also seconding Crisp Cranberry Soda Green Rooibos
Crisp Cranberry Soda Green Rooibos
Blackberry hazelnut honeybush
Blueberry custard tart/blueberry zaboglione
Butter rum (especially without spices, think butter rum life saver)
When blackberry met sage (big sage fan, esp. for the colder months)
Chocolate strawberry hazelnut honeybush
Myrtle’s Teahouse ( I know this one is an exclusive for the tea house but IMO it is the best black tea so far)
Blackberry custard tart
This one isn’t a reblend, but more of a tasting note I’d love to see return or get incorporated into a new tea: chocolate covered cherry
This is a festive treat my family always makes/buys around the holidays and I would love to see a blend with dark chocolate, brandied cherry, maybe vanilla or cream note. A thick, smooth black base. Or even a chocolate cherry shortbread maybe. Idk, I just find this combo is very wintery to me.
I think that Frank did a chocolate covered cherry one – I know he did a cherry garcia type of one – but also the chocolate covered cherry rings a bell for me – one year he created either a valentine’s type of box or a mother’s day type of box – and one of these two boxes (whichever it was) had a bunch of chocolate varieties and I think one of them was a chocolate covered cherry – although I don’t think it was a brandied type of cherry.
Anyway – thank you!!! :)
PS: there’s still some of the Myrtle’s Tea House available right now!
I thought of some more teas, but I won’t mention them this time, since there are so many ideas for the vote so far. :D
Well, feel free to list them if you’d like. I keep notes of all teas that are mentioned to me – and not all that have been listed are teas that I can include in the box so I won’t be adding them to the poll – but I do keep a note of them if I’m ever in a quandary about what tea to reblend for our featured reblend – in addition, if I get more than one or two requests for a particular reblend, I put that at the top of the list for reblending over the course of the next year.
Oh okay, then I will mention them:
Lemon Meringue Chai
Blueberrie-zzz
Banana Pudding Black or Genmaicha
Cranberry Salad Green
