The Tea Spot sent me a great steeper called the Tuffy Steeper.  It is a collapsible silicone steeping basket.  I love that it folds right up and I can take it anywhere.

They also sent me some teas to test out in my Tuffy Steeper:

  • Green Roasted Mint: I loved this tea! This tea is warming and not just because it was hot.  The mint is delicious and so much better than those other mint teas.

  • Monkey-Picked White: This tea has a great hint of apricot and a light buttery taste.  It is great in the morning with some toast and jam.  I bet it would be great iced as well.

  • Boulder Blues: I really enjoyed this as a dessert tea.  This green tea is combined with strawberry and rhubarb flavors.  This would be great in the summer warm for breakfast or a nice refreshing iced tea on a hot afternoon.

  • Meditative Mind: This is the The Tea Spots best seller.  I really wanted to like this tea but the hint of rosebuds was a bit too floral for me, however it did smell great!
