Still around just not a lot of variety in the cupboard these days. I miss the types of tea shops that were around like 3-4 yrs ago. Most either don’t shop to canada without paying a billion dollars for shipping or they are “local” and have stevia in every blend. My US tea mule is moving across the country in a few weeks and let’s be honest, the border isn’t really open. sigh just depressing really lol

I would say that Teavivire is still the best place to get tea shipped to Canada from China. It’s been awhile since I’ve ordered though because I haven’t been drinking much tea lately which is why my stash is so big at the moment.
A friend shipped me stuff from Silk Road as it’s cheaper for her to ship it to me than it is for me to buy it. It also made a great Christmas gift.
Also, the gazillion dollars in shipping and exchange charges etc. seem to be rising, so there’s that.
I feel like this shift to stevia happened mostly in just the past couple of years, too, so it caught me off guard – like it was gradual and then suddenly all at once. Sorry that getting flavored teas has gotten so hard, that sucks. :-(

I love teavivre and yunnan sourcing for straight teas….i’m seriously lacking in flavoured though :(

Miss you, Sil.
