I received my box today! I wasn’t expecting it to arrive because last month I had first received my shipping notification with tracking information, this time, I didn’t receive any shipping notification.
I don’t know if I should divulge the theme or not… so I won’t yet get into details about the package, and I won’t be able to sit down and really enjoy these until Wednesday afternoon…
Thanks to Steepster! Another great box!
Uh hang on, don’t you mean September 2011?
Actually, we made a bit of a change to the naming of Steepster Select. Jason sent out a message, but I’m not sure if everyone got it:
“We also wanted to let you know we’re making a slight change in the way we name each monthly box. We’re numbering the boxes and switching over to magazine-style naming, meaning it’ll say “October” on the box you receive in mid-September. You’ll still get the same number of boxes you signed up for—only the name’s changed."
So this month’s box is #002 and would be our October issue, if we were a magazine. But you can’t drink a magazine. Sorry for the confusion!
Just out of curiosity, when is the deadline for signing up/paying for the next box (the “November” box that will be mailed mid-October)?
Got it…very very pleased with the tea type. It is very favorite type of tea. I’m more pleased with this box then the last one. I was more happy about the strainer in the last box then the tea selection…lol.
Ooooo, then I should be getting mine soon.. Yay, I really liked one of the teas I got last box and ended up buying a bunch of it. Can’t wait to see what shows up this month.
What does everyone think of the teas? I thought the shade grown tie guan yin was delicious.
Yay, I just got my box this morning. I enjoyed the exposition on Oolongs and the descriptions of the teas… many happy days of tea acomin’.
