teatourist came in a beautiful box with an inserted envelope/tray to host the teas. My collection is the Nourish and Flourish Collection themed box. A nice Welcome card told me all about my themed box and gave me some encouragement.
A selection of teas, tisanes and herbal infusions to help cleanse the mind and detox the body after the festivities of the holiday season. Fresh starts and good habits begin now!
This box as do all had 6 different teas for me to try. Each packet of tea is enough for 3-4 servings.
Inside the box, a bright card listed all the teas in the box by name, with a picture and a discount code of 10-20% for each one in case I want to order larger sizes.
The Teas:
Each Tea variety comes in an envelope packet with a clear view window so you can see the beautiful tea. On the back, there is a card with the name of the tea, who makes the tea, the flavour profile, ingredients, Instructions on how to best serve the tea, allergy notes and details about the company that made it. The packages are resealable which will keep the tea fresh on my “tour”.

I really enjoyed January's teatourist. The themed box I received focused on self-care, taking care of your mind and body. I have since the end of December been working very hard to take good care of my mind and body, and this box was a complete gift to get. I enjoyed every sip and felt that the teas were fresh, vibrant and that the amount of tea provided in the box was well worth the cost of the subscription. This makes a great gift for the tea lover in your life, or a nice box to yourself as a reward. I look forward to sipping down this month’s stash, and I love knowing that if I run out of a new favorite tea that I can and with discount order more online. I love that these teas are not in my local store, it really does feel like I am on a magical journey.
