Default build your own custom tea blends

hey everyone,

i found this site, www.teanas.com, where yer able to create your own
custom blends. they only have flavored black teas, but i wrote to them
and they said that they are planning to add other teas due to the
requests. i know i want some green teas.

when i got my custom sample blends they sent me a coupon for 10% off,
its code 'sfvpr03' and yer spose to put it int the comments section.

just thought i'd let you guys know. pretty intetresting concept, i
like their tea lab where you can create your blends, but its
definitely weird trying to figure out how to blend things, but it is
fun.

anyone know any other place u can do this? i know www.adagio.com had
it for like a few weeks, but then they took it down, which was weird.

I'm just wondering how you would have much idea how it might turn out in an
on-line environment, without being able to make and taste a sample cup first.

I for one wouldn't risk anything approaching a substantial order purely on
speculation. At least to me tea-blending seems to be quite an art.

if you check their site out, www.teanas.com you will see that they
have samples for custom blends which makes 2 cups of tea for $1. i
tried that first and then purchased the 1 oz for my custom blend.

it worked pretty well, plus i liked that fact that i could create a
blend with the flavors i wanted.

www.adagaio.com had the same thing, except for them, i was locked into
buying 2 ounces or more for the custom blend, which i didnt like,
since it got costly.

but teanas service is good.

now i just want to see who will let me blend my own green teas! anyone
know?
