‘I bought a Flavoured Teas Sample pack along with two tea infusers.  The ordered arrived beautifully packed with 10g sealed packets of some 45 teas.  I gave half of them to me son who lives 200 miles away, and daily we each brewed a new tea.  Independently we made notes on each sample (inventing categies like nose, colour,initial tastes, later tastes, whether good for a second brew, etc.) and we each gave the brews a score, 0-5.  Eventually we swapped our halves and went through the process with the second half of the set.  We then compared notes and scores.  All of this has been a great deal of fun, and we have both discovered some teas we love (not necessarily the same ones) and a few we dislike.

Birthday Sale

It’s our ninth birthday! Which as many of you will know means it’s time for a store wide sale to celebrate.

The NBT Birthday Sale runs from the 2nd of December until midnight GMT on the 16th December 2011.

Spend £15 get 10% off
Spend £30 get 15% off
Spend £50 get 20% off

In addition look out for extra special offers and giveaways on our facebook and twitter pages, and coming soon a G+ plus page!

As we have grown it has become necessary to make some changes to the Tea Buffs scheme. We will be doing away with the quarterly discount system which is now too complex. Instead Tea Buffs will have an overall 5% discount which will show against prices when members log in to the store.

Existing members already set up on the store will remain members of the scheme. New members will have a joining fee of £10. We will continue to offer unusual teas exclusively to Tea Buff Members.

New features are:

Tea Buffs will have free download access to our tasting score sheet, and will receive samples of every new tea added to our main list free of charge. The Tea Buff section will remain on the site and access will be as before.

The Tea Buffs discounts accrued to date will be collated and final discount codes will be issued before the end of Feb 2011. This will remain valid for one year.

To check everything is still working after the move.

It is our birthday, we have now been trading for eight years! To celebrate we are having a spend and save sale.

Spend £10 and save 10% on your order.
Spend £25 and save 15% on your order.
Spend £40 and save 20% on your order.

Sale runs until midnight on Sunday 12th December 2010.

As you can probably see we have a new website. Designed and built for us by the lovely people at Silverknife

We like it and we hope you do to.
