I got a very generous tea swap from DeliriumsFrogs and my Joseph Wesley order. A very fun mail day.

Busy mail day for me but only one package related to tea and that was an envelope from the wonderful Roswell Strange who is single-handedly trying to explode my cupboard (thank goodness for my successful sipdown Saturday).

Today was a great day for me, mail-wise. I got my Butiki order, and Stacy saw that I had meant to order the pistachio ice cream so she added a sample of it, and she also added a sample of the rhubarb vanilla ale. Mmmmmm. I’m excited to try all of these teas, but they’re all pretty caffeine intensive. I guess I can wait until tomorrow.

I got my DAVID’s TEA order as well. I’m soooo excited for the carry mug. It’s even better than I imagined. Plus I got some teas from there that I’m excited to try.

AND I got my Bonavita kettle to take to work. Again, very excited. I’ve been guesstimating my tea temps, so I look forward to being more accurate. And having water at my desk might be good or bad. I haven’t decided yet.

Yesterday I got my Whispering Pines order but I was busy and forgot to write about it here. I haven’t tried any of the teas yet… But they look and smell so wonderful!

Also, Brenden provides great customer service and I just want to order from WP very soon again :)

I am so curious about his teas, I’m also waiting for my order to come any day now…

Out of curiosity, how’s the packaging? Are the teas in resealable pouches?

Ziplock. Golden Orchid is amazing. I like North Winds too. And they are different.

You got to love UPS, NO MAIL JAIL!! Box delivered and left at the door, yay!

Got my Harney & Sons today, so excited! I ordered many of some less popular blends, hoping they will work for me!

Sipping on Indian Nimbu, a beautiful Darjeeling very lightly flavoured with lemon and caramel, a pure delight!

boychik said

i love Indian Nimbu. im curious abt Blue Ginger.
Enjoy!!!

Yum! Boychik got me hooked on Indian Numbu. I am waiting for a few of my h&s teas to run low to order a tin of this. Enjoy!!

Thanks boychick, I got a small sample of Blue Ginger, it got me really curious also :-)

Thank you Teatiff, I was hooked at first sip! I’ve been craving darjeeling lately so when I saw this blend, I had to have it! I feel that if you don’t know it’s a flavoured tea, you’d think it’s just the darjeeling by itself with sweet and citrusy notes. It’s more scented than flavoured…so natural & so good!
