Yunomi Group Order: Box Up for Grabs 6/9/15
I am interested in being added to the list. I found out about this opportunity from the Tea Meetup group!
Updated post in regards to shipping… I really wish it didn’t cost $15 to send 2 pounds to Canada. Some may ask how 80g can equate to 2 pounds… well, let’s just say everyone is getting hooked up with different ‘things’ from Japan as well :)
Hey everyone, instead of sending out another email I am just going to post here.
I am in the process of purchasing gift teas for everyone and would like to know which two options you would prefer between:
Fruit flavored green tea
Floral green tea
Genmaicha
Black Gyokuro
Matcha
&
Japanese Oolong
Let me know via PM instead of replying on here.
Thanks.
I can’t figure out how to PM you on here. I choose fruit flavored green tea and matcha.
You need to follow me back so we can PM. When you do follow me, please send me your email so I can get you up to date because A LOT has been added to this order : )
Am I able to join in?
Update:
I went ahead and purchased some Japanese shade-grown black tea from Lupcia here in Tokyo (known as black gyokuro) http://postimg.org/image/hhfe1kujx
Everyone will get 5g of this tea
I also purchased enough Matcha Genmaicha for everyone to have 10g each
There will probably be a Japanese Jasmine tea as well but it depends on the cost of my oolong search/purchase: Currently I’m looking at getting a Japanese oolong tea for everyone as well but they cost quite a bit to order enough for 20 people :p, but I will do it!
(Trying to keep the gifts under $100 total, but I will do my best to get a great variety)
So… sorry to be that person… I’m glad you’re finding so much great tea and it sounds like you are having a wonderful time… but what is this going to do to the final cost of our shares?
Since they are ‘gifts’ I am not charging for them. The goal was to keep the final cost at $20 but it might end up being $22 because I have to buy enough packaging for 10+ teas for 16-18 people.
the oolong sounds amazing :) I’m following your journey and the pictures look magical! I’m so glad I can live vicariously through you hahah xD
(If you have me on Facebook then you’ll see more as time goes on, I’m still organizing some pictures: Facebook.com/andrewmr1)
I am working rather hard on making sure that this group order box is among everyones top group purchase experiences. Let’s just hope that customs doesn’t give me a hard time coming back when they see I have a briefcase of tea… I will post a picture of it on Instagram before I leave.
P.S. I hope everyone like chocolate ;)
I might be interesting in joining but what exactly are the teas being sent out?
1: 10g Kurihara Heritage Gyokuro
2: 10g Batabatacha, Rare Bancha
3: 10g Chiran Fukamushi Premium
4: 10g Yokota Sayamacha Sakura Sencha
5: 10g Obubu Houjicha Amber Roast
6: 10g (Setoya Momji Japanese Black Tea
7: 10g Kobayashi Shoten Sakura Tea
8: 2 pieces of Obubu Gencaicha candy
9: Kyobancha Roasted Green Tea
and then there is a whole gift section to this that includes items nobody is allowed to know about :p
However, I did announce that Lupcia’s Japanese Shade Grown Black Tea and a matcha genmaicha are included within the gifts.
Oh, that sounds fantastic! And a surprise too! I wouldn’t want the candy though since I never eat sugar or sweets. I’d love to join. Thanks for arranging this.
