There is a little (?) company that I don’t really know much about that the wonderful ifjuly introduced me to. What I do know is that I LOVE their spicy pear tea. So craving pear tea tonight I placed an order with Joy’s Teaspoon. I placed the order about 7:30PM (my time) and got the usual auto emails – order confirmation, paypal receipt of payment. What I didn’t expect was the email that I got an hour and 20 minutes later stating that order had SHIPPED. I understand that my package isn’t “in the mail”, but I’m sure it’s packaged and in the outgoing mail slot. That is incredibly quick!!! Like to pay compliments when they are due. Good Job!!!
I ordered:
Almond Cookie – Tea Packaging : 2.5 oz. Bag
Jack Frost – Tea Packaging : 2.0 oz. Bag
Spicy Pear – Tea Packaging : 4.0 oz. Bag
Enchanted Forest – Tea Packaging : 2.0 oz. Bag
I just ordered this weeks 52teas tea of the week. I love the fact that they have free shipping but at the same time it’s dangerous because I feel like I’m much more likely to make an impulse buy haha
I made an impulse buy last winter, and haven’t opened it yet.
The Blueberry Danish, and Peanut Butter… I think cheesecake.
I say you got to try at least one this week for science. I want to know how they taste
Too many new teas coming soon. I am saving them for the Winter season this year instead.
I ordered some oolong samples… because I needed orchid oolong.
From JKTeashop. Whomever told me about them, I blame you for that.
First order in quite a while, from Verdant!
Laoshan Roasted Oolong, 1oz
Hand Picked Early Spring Tieguanyin, 1oz
Hand Picked Spring Tieguanyin, 1oz
and, because Verdant is the best,
Gardens of Anxi and Golden Earl reblends!
I’m disappointed about Verdant’s lack of communication about the Laoshan delay and the fact that I can’t cancel.
If you emailed them, you might be able to cancel. I just wish the blends could be pre-ordered as well so i could lock those in.
Have they given any reason for the delay this year? I know that there was drought this year in Shandong, at least in Rizhao, maybe that had something to do with it? Just curious.
I don’t recall receiving an email about the delay as posted on the website that they will do when dates change. THOUGH, t be fair, i may have received one and just not registered what it was saying? I just noticed the date had changed when i was looking at the site again… heh
They only announced a 1 week delay, not a 5-6 week delay.
I tried emailing them earlier, still waiting for them to get back to me. I actually just realized how many vendor emails im awaiting haha
Is the Golden Earl reblend super secret? I looked on their web site and it doesn’t look like it is there.
TeaTiff – it was part of their blends club, so it is limited for now. I just managed to snag what was left after the blends club and bundle club shipped out.
David’s tea sold out of the 1 item i would have purchased, so Verdant got my money. Sad because LB won’t come fooorrreeeever, i picked up:
1st picking LB (though i liked it slightly less than LB)
Vanilla citrus Spice
Campfire Blend
Yu Lu Yan Cha pre-order
yeah, verdant confirmed the LB delay with me.
what even is yu lu yan cha? its obviously not actual yancha, why would they call it that? verdant even sells an actual yancha!
apt – I just read the page on this tea the other day. It was pretty neat how it came to be. It also describes how the name was crafted. Sil- Thanks for the reminder about Yu Lu Yan Cha. I am thinking I should add some of this to my order that will be shipped in the near future.
oh… I see… to honor the tea master who crafted it. still not yancha, oh well.
TeaTiff – the delivery date on this one changed to July as well, as a heads up.
Three orders in the past three days. Whoops, relapse!
Teavivre
Fengqing Dragon Pearl Black
Della Terra
Lemon Chiffon
Lime Chiffon
Whispering Pines
Golden Orchid
North Winds
Ailaoshan Black
Bi Luo Chun Yunnan Black
Golden Chai
El Dorado Chai
I’ve been waiting on a few of WPT’s black teas to be back in stock, and then with the 4th of July sale I saw my chance. I couldn’t help it! My VT order is en route and now I have so many teas headed my way…
>:D
I’ve not had anything from Whispering Pines yet, but I approve of the Teavivre and Della Terra Teas. Those are goooood.
A good Della Terra order!
