Could I get A Caramel Apple Concoction, Dr. Horrible's Tea of Evil, and Winter Spice, to Canada please. Would it be possible to get samples of the following Decaf Black Teas: Spice, Earl Grey, Apricot, Peach, Mango and Orange?

[dangerpronered]

Okay, you've been added to the list for the teas. Also, I do need your paypal email so I can invoice you after sign-ups close. :)

[boompsy]

Great, thank you! My paypal address is mimers99[at]hotmail[dot]com. Thanks!

[boompsy]

Oh sorry, could I also add on a Decaf Black Tea sampler? Would that be ok? Thanks!

[dangerpronered]

I've signed you up for these, and you've got first dibs on the Dr. Horrible pouch! Which country will I be shipping these to?

[dangerpronered]

Your total without shipping and handling for the Adagio tea blends decant circle is $31.46, for: A Caramel Apple Concoction! , A Caramel Buttercream Tea , Almond Coconut Joy , Cocoa Hazelnut honeybush , Dr. Horrible's Tea of Evil (with pouch), Earl Grey Cream, Freaking Twilight Fan, My Dear Watson, Sweet Thai Coconut, Sweet Velvet Fog, Winter Spice.

Please send payment to DangerInRed [at] gmail [dot] com. After the teas come in and I figure out how much it will cost to ship to Canada, you will receive a second invoice (around the beginning of December, I'm guessing). Please put your LJ name and order in the paypal comments. Thank you!

[dangerpronered]

Correction, not to Canada for you, but however you want it shipped to you in the US :)

I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but do you know approx. how much tea one slot's worth will make?

[dangerpronered]

It isn't a dumb question, but it is one I don't have an exact answer for. Math is not my strong suit, but I can provide an estimation. Adagio says that 3 oz (which is what a full packet of standard flavored black tea is) will make about 38 cups (based on a price of $5 for the package and price of 13 cents per cup...I think...). 38 cups cut in fourths is 9.5 cups per slot, but depending on how much tea you use per cup, it could me more/less (I tend to use more, so it wouldn't last me 9 cups probably).

[dangerpronered]

Also, the blends sometimes are made from different kinds of teas (honeybush, rooibos) which might take more/less tea to produce the desired strength. The calculations I made above were with a apple flavored black tea. I clicked on one of the blends and it says about 20 cents per cup, 3 oz, $10, which would be 50 cups per 3 oz, and about 12.5 cups per 1/4 of a 3 oz pouch? But I would always err on the low side.

Gotcha, will be in touch next week with a total :)

Re: Here from the teafortwo community.

[necrotica]

Cool!

Do you happen to know how much tea will fit into that flat-rate box? I'm thinking about getting more to make the most out of the $4.95 shipping, but I don't want to order so much that it won't all fit.

Re: Here from the teafortwo community.

[dangerpronered]

Hmm...I fit about 8-10 oz of tea in there, but it would depend on what kinds of tea and how they are packaged. I might end up just doing first/class priority for people if they prefer.

Thankyou so much for doing this circle!
Could I please order:

A Caramel Apple Concoction!
A Caramel Buttercream Tea
Almond Coconut Joy

I will probably also add on some extras as well, if that's okay - but I'll get back to you later today with that! (just wanted to sign up for those ones before the slots all went!)

Thankyou again!

[dangerpronered]

It's no problem, and I will add more pouches for popular blends if there is demand for it!

[kisstheviolets]

Thankyou!

Could I please also sign up for Sweet Velvet Fog?
And I would like to order the following as add-ons as well, if that's okay:

$2 sample of Honeybush
$2 sample of Caramel
$6 teabags - Almond
$6 teabags - Hazelnut
$6 teabags - Vanilla

I'm in Australia, posting here should be fine with those flavours/ingredients but I take full responsibility on them getting to me :)

Thankyou again!
