1. congrats on winning! 2. i’m voting for you! 3. your platform – small samples! save space (in cupboards)! more variety to taste! small is good! YAY!!!

Ricky

Thanks! Haha, we definitely need more small samples. I have so much tea…. my cardboard box is overflowing! I need to give some away, but I haven’t had time to dig through and figure out what needs to go.

Kristin started a discussion on sample sizes http://steepster.com/discuss/564-online-tea-shops-with-sample-sizes so I’ve been looking at that discussion to see which companies offer great sample sized teas. But it’s only making me want more tea (a bit contrary to what I’m trying to accomplish by buying smaller quantities/sizes). LOL!

Shouldn’t they melt? I mean boiling water + chocolate = melted chocolate. ME, ME! for sampler sets!

Congrats!

Cofftea

Told you it paid off!

Congrats on the winning, I am still trying and keep coming in like 11, 12, 14, someday I’ll win it!! And I totally agree with the sampler packs, there are a few I would love to try but do not want a full 2 ounces, just in case ;)

Ricky

I have to dig up the list I made which had tea companies / sampler sizes / prices.

Morsels don’t seem to melt when you bake them and I’m sure the temperature in an oven is higher than 212F, but then again no water is involved =]

Thanks Morgana!

Haha, going to win again!

I’ve been #9 and number 11 or 12 recently. So close, and yet so far. I agree about samplers, especially for 52teas since they have such unique flavors. There are so many that I want to try, but am afraid to buy a whole pkg of! If I’m ever in Wichita, Kansas, I’m definitely visiting Zoomdweebies tea bar!

Erin

Congrats on winning! Also, I agree about the sample idea. I just put in an order from 52teas but I’m not sure what I’m going to like.

Cofftea

What did you order Erin?

Erin

Cofftea – I ordered the Pineapple Upside-Down Cake Honeybush, Cucumber Melon Green Tea, and Apple Honey Black Tea. I’m so excited! All 3 of those sound like they would be really good iced, which is what I’m looking for right now.

Ricky

I’m tempted to get the Pineapple, but I have too much tea! I need to finish some a lot before I move on. It’s pretty bad when my cupboard box is overflowing.

Erin

Ricky, I’ll gladly send you a sample of the Pineapple when I get my order. Even if I end up loving it, it would take me forever to get through 2 oz on my own!

Cofftea

Thanks for reminding me to try cucumber melon iced- it was really good hot, I prefer it hot over the white cucumber from Adagio.

Ricky

Aww, thanks Erin! =]
