Teas in my collection that I will never drink

I cannot tell a lie: I've already started buying holiday teas! 

These holiday teas will be featured in upcoming posts.


Since I didn't stick to my tea buying freeze in October, it's a good thing that I sipped down a lot of teas that month!

Oldest (2018): Spiced Chai Tea by Crabtree & Evelyn

Newest (Oct 2020): Pumpkin Spice Rooibos by Clearview Tea Co.

 

There are some teas in my collection that I'll never open...

I will never drink these Twinings Teas because they were signed by Stephen Twining! He was in town in 2016 to promote the launch of the Twinings Large Tea Leaf Discovery Collection!

Stephen Twining is a 10th generation Twining who has worked in the family business for over 30 years!

 

 
A few years ago, my aunt gave me the Ahmad Tea Britannic Collection which commemorated the birth of Prince George in 2013. The "Best Before" date is 2015 so the teas are wayyyyyy past their prime. The British-themed tins are super cute though!

Do you have "collectible teas" in your stash?

Chai in my cup

 Hello, chai season!

 Chai #1: Organic Black Chai with Ginger and Elderberries from Ikea


Chai #2: Spiced Chai by Crabtree & Evelyn


Chai #3: S'mores chai pu-erh by Davids Tea


Chai #4: Coconut Cream Pie Chai from Dessert by Deb

This was my favourite and I've already ordered a larger (75g) bag!

EDITED TO ADD: It turns out that Sept 21 is National Chai Day so Happy National Chai Day!
