YAY! oh i hope you love them grace :) some great choices there
I placed my first orders with both PureAromaTeas and Teavivre yesterday. A dozen or so 10-14 gram samples from each. I really did not need to buy as much as I did.
I did that a few months ago through Teavivre. I’m still going through samples…haven’t even really started. It’s an awesome way to try tea, though!
Ordered a glass gaiwan off ebay / Dragon Tea House

I’ve been eyeing this gaiwan for awhile too!
Cool! I like the shape of it.
mmm placed an order with PureAroma just now – 30ish random teas! woot woot!
haha wow, that will give your cupboard quite a boost!
Yes but not until AFTER Saturday lol :) and they’re all sample sizes so easily sipdown end in 2-4 cups
Just like the 8 teas I have coming in the mail won’t be added to my stash until after Saturday :) and yay for sample sizes!
I should never look at this thread. I saw someone’s order from Zen Tea, and decided I needed to try their teas, too. I got 20G each of:
Green Tea-Coconut $2.00
White tea-Toffee Dream $2.20
Rooibos-Vanilla Heaven $1.80
Herb-Tumeric Ginger Organic $0.60
Herb-Bamboo integrity $2.00
Oolong-Bossa Nova $1.80
Oolong-Coconut $3.80
I’m really looking forward to trying the 2 oolongs.
I wanted more samples, not full sizes, as I have a lot of full sizes of unflavored black tea right now. It’s the bestest, so that’s ok, but I am trying to learn what else I like. I’ve explored a lot of unflavored teas, so now I’m branching out further, although many of these have a black base.
From Chado tea in California, I got the following dozen 1 ounce samples, all for under 2 dollars each, with 3.95 shipping – the whole order was 23.12USD:
Green Christmas (green tea, orange peel, almonds, rose petals, cinnamon chips, apple pieces and cinnamon orange spice)
Orange Blossom Oolong
Red Fruits (black tea, strawberry, raspberry, red currant and cherry)
Lychee Tea (black)
Lemon Tea – with lemon peels (black)
Sambucca/Licorice Spice (black)
Phoenix (black tea, honey, caramel, vanilla)
Almond Tea (black)
Banana Tea (black)
Butterscotch Tea (black)
Samovar – Russian Caravan Fruity (black)
Mate Carnival (Roasted mate, cocoa, rooibos, sunflower, cactus, cornflowers and almonds)
Oh I have been looking for a great butterscotch tea. Hope it is great!
uh oh… looks like i have another company to look into…
I’m a bit nervous because they’re primarily a teahouse, not chiefly an online retailer, but they had such cheap, big samples and huge selection. I’ll be sure to make notes for all of them.
I got a couple of their teas in a swap and while I haven’t tried one, I loooved the other (Earl Grey Exotique)… seemed to be very high quality flavored tea! Looking forward to your reviews.
Aw, I have the exact same pot in green. It’s a nice little pot.
I bought this one mostly for its cheapness. I’m glad to know it is a good pot! I’m also asking for a nice kyusu for my birthday! :D
