Tea-Time! #2

Yes I am in again! Do hope I will receive tea from abroad this time. Last time I received tea from the Netherlands, where I live. And what are the odds for a small country like that!

LOL, the odds seem to be really big again, as from the 13 that signed up already are 5 Dutchies...

I buy most of my teas from a gourmet seller on Etsy and non of the bags are individually wrapped. Is that a problem? I would put each teabag into a small Ziploc baggie and write what it is on it, or attach a tag saying what it is and where it was from and such. If that is not okay, I understand.

Thanks!

I have the same sort of issue too, as I have Lipton Pyramid bags, which is not wrapped either. But the tea is so delicious! I think it's no objection, when you pack it like you described.

I have no problems with the tea being tagged with what it is...

I don't have any problem with self wrapped, not a tea bag collector but make it clean do drink after sending :-)

The celestel seasoning teas come in the brew bags only so I placed them inside tiny zip bags with what they are and didn't have any problems.

As long as they are new, clean and drinkable there should not be an issue I think.

I completely agree! And speaking of Celestial Seasonings tea, if my partner has Tension Tamer (dragon tea, according to my 10-yo, for the picture on the package), please send it along! He'll love you :)

Celestial Seasonings "Blueberries & Cream," Pickwick's Warming Fire, and Celestial Seasonings Madagascar Vanilla Red....would automatically get you a heart and multiple bags would be more than welcomed! (Hint...Hint...)

I am open to any kind of tea. Not a big fan of black tea or English Breakfast tea but will of course not rate you down for sending it to me :-p - I like trying new odd flavours :-D

I love tea -- feel free to send me black tea, green tea, roiboos, honeybush or tisanes, I'll drink it up! :) Just please no boring things like English Breakfast, peppermint etc., stuff that I can get here as well (or already have in my tea box). I'm also not too big on citrus-y flavors (although other fruits are fine), and I can't stomach chai (I think it's the cloves)... Generally, I like weird, unusual blends. :)

I love tea-with exotic sweet spices-rhum-vanilla-cocco... NO MINT NO LOOSE TEA

Oh my gosh, I love this! I like any and all teas, loose or not!

I love all kind of tea, individually wrapped, if it´s possible, please

Time for me to get swapping again after 2-3 years :)

I love tea! Chai and herbal blends preferred Not too big on fruity tea

I have some nice loose leaf teas, but I can put these in tea bags if needed as well.

I just ordered a chai yerba mate blend from a tea maker on etsy, they come bagged, it is a coffee subsitute blend and I can't wait to try it. He also has a chai green tea blend I would like to try.

I have to count up my teas before joining but if I do anything with lavender or jasmine or any exotic type flavors would get you a heart and chocolate flavored teas...I got a cocoa chai from one swap and it was soo yummy.

Red, white, green black any tea blend but no apple cinnamon or cinnamon by itself........I do not like the zinger teas from celestial seasonings but willing to try ones from other brands.

It was interesting to read the discussions but I only buy yogi tea and Liptons yellow label, perhaps I can send 2 bags of each, how about yellow label is that too boring??

As long as you have 5 different ones, it's fine! 2x5 is 10 bags too (^_^)

I am so excited, I just went out and bought tea for this! And am now sampling it myself, of course.

And oh man, cocoa chai sounds AMAZING!

I can't think of a tea I don't like, and I welcome any loose leaf tea!

when you say yellow label do you mean just the regular orange/black pekoe tea? That is what regular lipton is pekoe tea.

I like to flavor up my regular lipton with hazelnut non dairy creamer it's really yummy. I have a 144 bag box as I got it at a wholesale food shopping club warehouse.

BTW I am hosting a tea swap, it's a red and white tea swap alice in wonderland themed as well as a matchbox same theme.

I prefer bagged tea, but sending it in just the brew bag is no problem. I'd like a note saying what it is though if it's just the brew bag. :-)

Glad to hear that we can send NEW brew bags, A lot of the tea I buy is Celestial Seasonings and it comes in a box with the brew bags, not an individually wrapped pkg.

celestial seasonings are eco friendly that is why they don't individually wrap them.

I use small white labels on the small zip lock type bags when shipping those.

This could be interesting...I spent some time in England and the tea is magnificent.

I just had a cucumber white tea and it was very good...had some other flavors in it of course.

Can't wait to swap.

I got IIonaH! Checked the profile girl and I totally have to revamp mine now. I had no idea how detailed everyone was. Looking forward to swapping!

Please, no loose tea for me, just sealed bags. Thanks...............

Ship deadline date is this Sat the 20th

Yes it is.

It says Lipton's Yellow Label on the packet. Hergestellt in der EU
