Greetings everyone!

Well, it’s been a little while since our last contest, and I love hosting contests!  So, I have assembled a sampler package consisting of 6 tins of my favorite teas and a small package of T-Sacs.

Here are the teas in this sampler (Just click on the name of the tea to be directed to the review that I’ve written for this tea):

  1. Orchid Oolong from Mighty Leaf
  2. Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish from 52Teas
  3. Rooibos Toffee Tide from Drink T
  4. Earl Grey from Lupicia
  5. Summer Rain from Art of Tea
  6. Hangzhou Shi Feng Long Jing from Tea Valley

Each tin holds about 1/2 an ounce of tea, but this varies according to the tea … depending upon the bulk of the leaf of each individual tea.

Anne (aka the Mad Tea Artist) has celebrated her 29th birthday for many years now. She lives in the Pacific Northwest with her hubby and her youngest daughter. Her oldest daughter is married and has bestowed Anne with the proud title of "Gramma" and her grandson is about the cutest boy you ever did see. Anne started her journey with tea as a casual drinker and became more serious about her tea drinking when she realized that she couldn't drink coffee. Shortly thereafter, she started becoming obsessed with the beverage and she started creating small-batch, artisan blends of tea that she sold online as LiberTEAS. After a few years, she realized she wasn't cut out to be the sole proprietor of a business so she closed LiberTEAS and started reviewing teas online. She met Jennifer through another blog that they both reviewed for and they decided to start their own review blog. This review blog! Throughout her journey as a tea reviewer, she discovered 52Teas and became enamored with the idea of creating a new tea every week. When the founder of 52Teas decided he wanted to move on, he offered the business to Anne but knowing that she wasn't cut out to be a sole proprietor, she instead offered the company to her oldest daughter who employs her as the Mad Tea Artist for 52Teas!

Potpourri Tea from LiberTEAS (And Tea Giveaway)

by teaequalsbliss

Tea Type: Green Tea

Where To Buy: LiberTEAS

Product Description:

A gunpowder tea that looks and smells like potpourri … a unique sensory delight! This gunpowder tea will leave you hooked – it’s absolutely divine!

Tasters Review:

Potpourri Tea is from LiberTEAS – both the person and the co-founder of this blog!  She was so nice to send me a tin of this.  I remember having it before and liking it.

It’s a VERY beautiful and interesting tea!  The aroma of the dry blend is ‘pretty’ and then once you add the hot water to infuse it’s much more intense!  It smells JUST LIKE potpourri and certainly lives up to it’s name!  It made me feel like I was walking thru a glorious flower garden!

The taste is light yet flavorful and floral and semi sweet at the end of the sip. It’s a very Feminine tea. Nice. Relaxing…but I do think that men would enjoy it too at the end of a day or if you are stressed and need a break earlier on.

The aftertaste was pleasant and my palate was very pleased. I could taste the gunpowder but  also the flowers without it being too much floral!

I would ALSO suggest this tea to people who are not sure about gunpowder teas or don’t like the after taste of them…with the other ingredients in this blend – it doesn’t leave that stereotypical gunpowder aftertaste but the gunpowder is still present and you can still receive the benefits of the gunpowder!

You can find some great info on Gunpowder Tea HERE.

I want to thank LiberTEAS again for this sample!  It’s truly lovely!

NOW…here is a chance for YOU to win a sample of this too!  CHECK IT OUT!!!!!
