Annoucing Another Giveaway – It’s our Season of Giveaways!

by liberteas

This giveaway is now closed, and a winner has been selected.  Please watch our blog, though, because another giveaway is on its way … SOON! 

The response to our Season of Giveaways has been HUGE!  So, let’s keep it going, what do you say?

This week, we’re giving away December’s Tea Tasting Box from Amoda Tea!  (Value $15 plus shipping!)  I heard about Amoda Tea on Steepster, they started out with tea tasting box that was exclusively for Canadian tea drinkers for their first month (October) and expanded to the US market in time for their November Box.  I received their November box and I squealed with delight when it arrived.  I love the the packaging and I love being able to try three brand new teas that I had not tried before.


These boxes are FUN, FUN, FUN – Of course, when is it NOT fun to receive tea in the mail?  Second only to drinking the tea, it is the best part of my job as a tea reviewer! – and the boxes would also make a great gift or stocking stuffer for someone special (even if that someone is you!)  It’s also a great opportunity for you to see what Amoda is all about.  I love this company – and I think you’ll love them too!

Here are the teas that were in the box in November:

Honeybush Haze

Darling Darjeeling

Zulu Chai

And you can bet there will be some fabulous teas for their December Box – the box you can win just by entering this giveaway!  This contest allows you to get in on the fun for the month of December.  The winner of this contest will receive the tea tasting box from Amoda Tea for the month of December!

To enter:

  • Comment on this blog post.  Sounds simple enough right?  Well, it is!  Be sure to include in your comment a way for us to get in touch with you should you be the lucky winner of this week’s contest.

To earn additional entries:

  • Tweet this contest.  Be sure to include a link to this blog post so that those that read your tweet can enter to win too.  Also, be sure to add @SororiTeaSister on your tweet so that we can easily find it.  This will help us verify the tweet, and plus we like to see our name on tweets.  It makes us feel important and special.
  • Follow Amoda Teas on Twitter.  Really simple, and it earns you an entry into the contest.  Be sure to come back here and let us know that you’ve done this.
  • Add a link to your Facebook Page.  Just mention this contest on your facebook page and include a link so that your Facebook friends can enter.  Be sure to add a comment to this blog post with a link to your facebook page so that we can verify the Facebook entry.

Now, for the fine print:  This contest is open from today, December 11, through December 17.  A winner will be drawn via Random.org on December 18 and will be contacted privately before the name of the winner is announced.  If we are unable to reach the winner within three days, an alternate winner will be drawn until we can contact the winner to obtain their shipping information, which will then be forwarded to the staff at Amoda Tea.

This drawing is opened to US and Canadian residents only, because at the moment, that’s where Amoda Tea ships.  If you are a SororiTea Sister, you’re not eligible to win – then again, there’s only three of us, so if your name is not Anne, Jennifer, or Joely, there’s a pretty good chance that you’re not a SororiTea Sister.  The same goes for the staff at Amoda Tea.  For the rest of you, please enter and join in on the fun!

This Giveaway is now closed, and a winner has been selected!  Congratulations to eugaet … he is the winner of this week’s giveaway sponsored by Amoda 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!

Verdant Tea – Our Next Sponsor in the Season of Giveaways!

by liberteas

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.  PLEASE CHECK BACK WITH US NEXT WEEK THOUGH, THERE WILL BE ANOTHER GIVEAWAY SOON!

So far, we’ve had a phenomenal response to our Season of Giveaways!  It looks like this season will extend well in to February … so there are going to be LOTS of chances to win!

But … I’ve got to be real here, THIS prize is one that I covet.  I want this prize.  If there was a way for me to declare myself the winner, I’d do it!  But, alas, I can’t.  What I’m driving at, though, is that this is one of the very best prizes yet!  You’re not going to believe it … I still can’t believe it!

Verdant Tea is offering a full THREE MONTH membership to their Tea of the Month Club!  Yeah, you read that right.  Three months of tea from Verdant Tea!  This is a $75. value!  JACKPOT!

Verdant Tea is easily one of my favorite tea companies because – quite simply – they offer some really amazing, high-quality teas that are hard to find … some teas that I’ve not been able to find anywhere else!   Their Laoshan Black tea is amazing, they offer some incredible Apothecary blends like their Xingyang Silk Road Spice, and of course some amazing Pu-Erh (when it comes to Pu-erh teas, I think that Verdant Tea is my #1 choice) like their Yanxin’s Reserve ’04 Shu Nuggets.

So imagine how amazing it would be to receive a box from them EVERY month for THREE months!  Unbelievable, right?

To enter:

  • First, visit Verdant Teas.  Take a look around.  While you’re there, get an idea of what teas interest you the most.
  • Comment on this blog post.  While you can earn additional entries, without the comment on this blog post, no entries will be eligible.  Be sure to include in your comment a way for us to contact you (let me know if I can contact you on Steepster or on Tea Trade, for example, or provide your email contact information), I mean, in case you win, I need to be able to let you know that you’re the winner, right?  In your comment, mention which tea you’d like to be part of one of the boxes that you receive from Verdant Tea.  Now, I can’t guarantee that this tea WILL be in one of the three boxes, but, we’d like to know which teas from Verdant EXCITE you the most.
  • Want to earn additional entries?  OK!  First, tweet about this contest.  Your tweet should include a link to this contest, and you should also include @SororiTeaSister on your tweet so that we can see the tweet easily.  Please also come back to this blog post and let us know that you’ve tweeted the contest, and include a link to the tweet.
  • Another Entry?  Sure!  Go on facebook and mention this contest on your page.  Again, be sure to include a link to this contest in your facebook mention, and after you’re done, come back to this blog post, and comment that you’ve mentioned it on facebook and provide a link to your facebook page so that we can verify it.  (and yes, we do verify each and every one of these!)

Since this is our largest prize yet, I thought I’d throw in a couple of extra bonus entry opportunities:

  • Bonus Entry #1:  You can earn a bonus entry by liking Verdant Tea on Facebook.
  • Bonus Entry #2:  You can earn an additional bonus entry by following Verdant Tea on Twitter!
  • Bonus Entry #3:  You can earn an additional bonus entry by following our blog!  To follow our blog, simply click on the little button that you see on the bottom right of the screen, and add your email address!  It’s that simple!

OK, so, there are a few things you need to know.  It was pointed out to us in the last giveaway that we neglected to mention who was eligible to enter this contest.  This contest is open to all US and Canadian residents, except for those of us who are SororiTea Sisters and those who work for Verdant Tea.  All other US and Canadian residents can enter.

You can enter until December 7.  A winner will be picked via random.org on December 8, and after the winner has been contacted and verified, we will announce the winner and send the information to Verdant Tea so that the winner can claim the prize.

Best of luck to all entrants!

Congratulations to Raven for winning this giveaway during our Season of Giveaways!  We will have another giveaway soon … keep your eyes peeled!
