Muslin Tea Bags & Equal Exchange Organic Cane Sugar

The box included 2 muslin tea bags and 4 packets of organic cane sugar. I'm so glad they included the tea bags! I appreciate those extras!

Simple Loose Leaf Review – May 2015

I liked the variety of teas in this box and look forward to trying them all. I'm most interested in the Sungma Estate Darjeeling. The Gunpowder Green doesn't have the most appealing name, but I'm curious to try it too. You get a sufficient amount of tea, so I like the value of the box. I think Simple Loose Leaf is a good option for any tea drinker. It's also great that the give subscribers 50% off for shop purchases.
