Thank you Raritea for sharing your Berry Good with me.
I quite like this. Super berry to the rescue!
A little too much hibby but then what else is new… and I can hardly taste the puerh in the first steep, if you don’t count the pinch of fishy scent which I only noticed when piping hot. Overall, it was much better in the second infusion. I heart berry teas!!
I’d have to try it again to get further into detail, as this is a backlog. and a sipdown (which I am totally claiming even though this hasn’t yet been added to my cupboard!) :P

LOL! So do you guys actually add samples to your cupboard? I have them on my inventory list (on my computer, listed by name of company or person who sent them), but haven’t added them to my cupboard.
Terri – i add ever single thing in my house to my tea cupboard because i don’t know how long it will take for me to drink it. That way i always have a handle in ONE place, of how much tea i have. The exception to that are the few teas that i can’t log due to things like “i bought it at a random store in china” :)
Well, if I want to sip tea with the big girls, I guess I’d better get my sh^t together then :x :o :D hahaha
I’m the same as you Terri, I don’t add it to my Steepster cupboard so as to lessen confusion during swaps.
I think I’ll start calling them “sample sipdowns”, because while I am getting it out of my cupboard, it isn’t something that I can refer to again or share with others (unless it’s a big sample!) but I feel it should be counted somehow… a happy compromise! :P
Terri – i just prefer it for tracking. It doesn’t bother me having stuff in there that I can’t swap since typically 90% of my smaller samples i could part with at least a cup. I also don’t swap often. (note to terri my cupboard has lots of recent samples you can’t have mwahahahahah).
I guess that’s why I put them in my inventory, but not in my cupboard. If someone looks in my cupboard & sees something they want to try, I want to make sure I have plenty to share, so they won’t be letdown.
Sil – you’re just trying to get rid of stuff, right? LOL
I’m trying to keep sample sizes out of my Steepster cupboard now too. I have a spreadsheet on my computer for teas I’ve bought, and one for teas swapped to me, so it’s really unnecessary to me to confuse potential swap partners :)
oh no it’s not a sipdown… you said those don’t count :P
I know! but I’m doing it anyhow muahahaa

Exactly! I accidentally included some samples in my cupboard and ended up disappointing some swap partners awhile back.
Also, I don’t really update my matcha cupboard because there is no easy way to swap!
