This is the last, the little bits at the bottom of the tin – am clearing a lot of teas, I have a totally unprecedented number of available tins. Weirdly with no compunction to have a large mega order yet, almost as if I am not really sure what teas I would really love to have. I have been trying so many flavoured things, I might have tired from the concept a bit, at least in general. So for now, am just happy to be drinking what i got at home.
This is one which is no chore to finish and might be a rebuy though I need to see how much I will miss it now I have finished it . There is something so perfectly civilized, so elegant and smooth about it, the smoke I love so much, the bergamot just a hint.

I also have a bunch of used tins, which have been languishing in boxes/bags for quite some time. A few weeks ago I washed all of them in soapy water, then rinsed them repeatedly, then soaked them in vinegar water, then rinsed repeatedly, then soaked them in Baking Soda water, then rinsed, then left them to dry. They are still empty, although I’m pretty sure they are completely dry by now :)
One of these days I’ll make cute labels for them & refill them with teas that I love…
Terri, I do that, any tin, I wrap in italian paper for reuse. I don´t wash the tins though, because of rust, but I steam them, put them upside down for an hour or so over a vessel of boiling (cooling) water and wipe it down and then store them open for a while – all smells really disappear, though I am kind of wary of smoked teas
thanks to you and the sample you sent me I have now bought a 100g of Tzar Alexandre- this is a very lovely and smart tea.
Thanks for letting me know, this is one which I will rebuy as well!
