Tea "Clubs". Are they worth it?
I have been really interested in joining/ subscribing to a tea club. But I’ve found that a lot of them are fairly expensive. Has anyone who has been, or is currently in one satisfied? I drink a fair amount of tea every day and I would like to try something new.
Well, I am an active subscriber to 52Teas – I receive all of their weekly teas sent to me on a monthly basis – and that subscription is definitely worth it. I know it seems expensive at first glance but if you do the math, you’re actually saving a bit of money in the long run and the best part is that I don’t have to worry about the tea selling out before I manage to order it. I am seldom disappointed with his teas, so this has turned out to be a very worthwhile investment for me.
I was a member of the Global Tea Taster’s Club (I understand that this will be relaunched soon, but, I am not entirely sure), and I thought that club was worth it too. It brought to my door many different teas that I might not have been able to try otherwise because many of them are not available worldwide.
I guess it’s just a matter of what you’re looking for. I understand that Verdant Tea’s club is pretty awesome too… and given my knowledge of Verdant Tea’s quality and exceptional line of teas, I’d say that is worth it also.
