24 Days of Tea Challenge

Okay so I guess in essence this is not really a challenge but will be a heck of a lot of fun!  I ordered the DavidsTea 24 Days of Tea a couple of weeks ago and cannot wait to dive in. It smells so yummy!

www.davidstea.com
Essentially it is an advent calendar but instead of getting a chocolate everyday I will get to steep and try and different Tea everyday.  The box contains 24 tins of tea (enough for about 2 cups each) stored behind a perforated cardboard "door" for each day.   It reminds me of when I was a kid and the anticipation of opening the cardboard on my chocolate calendars.  They were selling for $29.50.  I have been advised they are currently sold out online but some of the retail stores may still have some stock.

I can't wait to get going on this and will be blogging my journey along the way.  My 24 Days of Tea journey will not start until December 1 (although I know some bloggers are already going through them)  This is my official countdown to Christmas.

I don't normally buy sampler sets but thought this would be a fund one to try as I am new to DavidsTea.  It will help introduce me to more of their teas.  (Still wish I had a store closure to me) .

The flavours included in the calendar (according to the back of the box) are:

  • buttered rum
  • checkmate
  • chocolate rocket
  • coco chai rooibos
  • cream of early grey
  • creme brulee
  • david's organic breakfast
  • detox
  • forever nuts
  • glitter & gold
  • goji pop
  • green and fruity
  • hot lips
  • Japanese sencha
  • kiwi's big adventure
  • north african mint
  • read my lips
  • salted caramel
  • santa's secret
  • sleigh ride
  • sweet dreams
  • toasted walnut
  • the skinny 
  • vanilla oolong
Here's to December 1 and starting my official countdown to Christmas.
