So excited about this year’s swap! Many thanks to AJRimmer for organizing this year.

I prefer bold black tea above all else, both flavored and straight/plain/unflavored. I especially love fruity, smoky, and floral black teas (no added hibiscus, please). I’m always open to trying new things, but I’m not typically a fan of licorice, artificial sweeteners, or white/green teas. I’m sorry, white tea tastes like lukewarm sink water and I don’t know how to fix it. :(

I typically prepare my tea western-style and always add honey and cream (hence my aversion to hibiscus – I’d prefer not to chew my beverage). I usually drink loose leaf, but I’m not opposed to tea bags. I don’t have any allergies, restrictions, or aversions. I’ll try anything once. I’d like to keep shipping within the US this year, if possible.

Let me know if I’ve missed anything!

I’m interested if you can squeeze me in I’m sorry I’m just seeing this! I love black and oolong and red teas. I don’t like stevia sweetened teas. I don’t like peach, licorice or ginger flavors. I like chai. I have a lot of fruit flavors to swap. Decaf or caffeine is fine. I love flavored teas. Bags or loose leaf is fine. I love apple, mint, vanilla and blueberry teas. How much is shipping internationally? I may treat myself to a bunch of teas I’ve never tried before if you can find me someone with similar preferences.

Just thought I would post and see if there was anyone who still wanted a calendar but didn’t get one or was thinking of posting and didn’t. I’d love to send one to someone who would like one.

That is so sweet of you, skysamurai! Today is my first time back on Steepster in ages and I’m so bummed that I missed the deadline to participate in the advent swap this year. I’d be thrilled if you could send me a calendar! Please feel free to check my cupboard and let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to send you a sample of in return.
