Today i thought i'd write about a product i have recently discovered, it is not beauty related so it would be a perfect gift for anyone really, male or female. It's the English Tea Shop infuser tins! This company is UK based so if you're looking for something that's not in the T2 trend then this is the tea for you!
I received a tin of the Super Berries triangle tea bags. I was so excited to try them as i love tea! Unfortunately for some reason the first few bags i took out of the tin fell apart and i had tea leaves everywhere! fortunately i had a tea strainer handy so it wasn't all wasted. You're probably wondering why i'm blogging about a failed product. Well on a whim i decided to email the English Tea Shop in the UK and find out if it had happened to other people or had i just received a dud product. I got a very prompt response back, and they asked me to provide the lot number and they'd send me a replacement product.

The next day i received an email from Rosemary at BioLiving who are the Australian stockists, she asked for my address information so i could be sent a replacement product. A week went past and i received my parcel, not only did i get another tin of Super Berries but i also recieved the Lemongrass, Ginger & Citrus tin! I was so impressed with this lovely gesture that i had to write about them.
So if you know someone who is a tea lover, but you want to steer clear of the T2 trend (I am actually in love with T2) then this is the brand for you! Here is a little spill from the Bioliving site about the English Tea Shop tea:
"All our teas are Certified Organic. We believe that engaging ourselves with more organic produce will be beneficial for our health and wellbeing as well as that for our environment.A selected range are also Certified by Fairtrade International. Fairtrade guarantees a better life for farmers, their families and communities. And we firmly believe in this.
No nasties, no chemicals - just the indulgence of natural, organic taste bud tingling tea!"
I have to also comment on the actual tea itself, the Lemongrass one is really delicious, it's not overpowering with Lemon or Ginger, it's just a subtle citrus/gingery taste! And the Super Berries one is really delicious, it is not too sweet or too over powering with berries! Basically they both have just the right amount of flavour and there is no biterness aftertaste!
They also have a variety of other products other than the pyramid tea bags ($8.69), there is also mixed boxes (from $2.29) and loose leaf tea ($11.32). A lot cheaper than other tea brands! All can be purchased from BioLiving and selected retail outlets, there is a list of stockists on the website!

I am so impressed with the prompt responses i received from both the supplier and distributor, i will definitely be purchasing their tea, if not for myself as a gift for someone else!
Are you a tea lover? Are there any other brands that i should be trying?!
