Excited Sidenote: I just got an email from 52teas – their 12 Teas of Christmas samplers are available – I ordered one – YAY! Did I mention that I’ve never tried 52teas before, and I already have an order from them on the way? I might be going a little tea order crazy, but I can’t help it, there are just too many yummy teas out there to try :) Here’s a link if you want to check it out for yourself http://www.52teas.com/2012/11/03/12-teas-of-christmas-2012/
At least I’m doing a good job of finishing off the previous purchases in my stash. I just had the last of this cranberry punch today. It’s so yummy good! It does get a little tart as it cools, but not overwhelmingly so. I would feel inclined to buy more if I was in the area of this shop again, and if miraculously, I wasn’t distracted by their other tea options. The empty tea sachet that the leaves came in almost smells good enough to eat…don’t worry, I won’t :D
Thanks for the link. I haven’t tried 52 Teas before but maybe I’ll try that sampler. Or maybe I’ll get the DavidsTea one. #decisions
Don’t get caught in the constantly-purchasing-tea trap! You’ll buy too much and never finish it all! Samplers, however, are always appropriate (I’m totally not trying to talk myself into anything here…)
@Cavocorax – For me the 52teas sampler seemed like a good opportunity to try something completely new, but I will probably go buy a few sample sizes at Davids also when I’m in the area of their store (or if they have some kind of online special that entices me enough).
@Kittenna- That’s good advice. I mainly purchase samplers so I’ve been pretty good at getting through my teas so far. In fact, my tea collection is looking seriously depleted these days, so I’m hoping at least one of my orders shows up really soon.
