an open letter to davids tea

dear david's tea,

i don't know who david is, but i want to marry him.

okay, so maybe...let's say 2 years ago, i fell in love. not love at first sight, but love at first sip. a lady my mum worked with got her hooked, then my mum got me hooked and since i've paid it forward and gotten a few friends hooked too. i had found my perfect green tea, called matcha genmaicha then low and behold, what do you do? discontinue it. i was heart broken. i tried contacting you to order all of the back stock you possibly had left because i loved the tea that much, but to no avail. then i found a new favourite, simply the genmaicha which only makes sense because it had tiny bits of popcorn in it and lord knows i love me some popcorn. i could have held a grudge for david's discontinuing my favourite tea, but i couldn't stay away. at this point i had already purchased 2 or 3 of your perfect tea mug's and those single handedly changed the way i drink tea. not even being over dramatic (well, maybe a little) but it just made it...smoother? tastier? all of the above. these mugs make my tea drinking experience awesome'r. 
yep, it's a thing. 
i now have a cupboard full of pretty silver tins & bags with delicious teas in them to enjoy whenever i want...and i never want it any other way.

this past christmas i got the beautiful noble glass travel mug & the giant perfect tea mug...because having one of the perfect mugs that's even bigger? hell yes, i am all over that...and i'm obsessed with it. your packaging and colours and fonts and designs are awesome, the tea - even better and the accessories you make to alter your tea drinking experience, wicked! i truly love you, david...whoever you may be.


this was not a sponsored post. 
however, if david's tea would like to sponsor me, i am all for it.

  1. love love love. I'm currently drinking a delicious mug of forever nuts (& I finally figured out how to make the perfect latte! So it's a forever nuts latte with vanilla almond milk. OMGGGGSOOOOGOOOOOOD.). SOOOO GOOD. So good. Hahaha.

    We need to have a DT tea date. OR, okay, I know, we can totally open a DavidsTea in Toronto that is also a craft shop/yarn shop/hangout place/bar at night/TRAVEL AGENCY (gotta go on awesome trips & Jules can totally take care of that part!)/AMAZING SHOP.

    Hahaha why yes, I am a little tipsy right now... but that sounds like the perfect shop. Don't ya thiiiiiink??? (Also, we serve nachos.)

  2. Ha.. you're such a cu-tea pants! My ben got me a lil' sampler set from there for Christmas... and I was totally 'weirded' out by the looks of that ^^ forever nuts tin. Trail mix makes tea?? But WOW it does! They're very inventive in throwing so many wild things into a mug and making it yum!
    Now I just need me some of those groovy mugs too ;) I wish they had a lil' cafe there to actually sit in... guess there's the big comfy lounge chairs in the mall next to the ol' ladies with blue hair - perfect!

  4. Why have you done this to me Carly? I need that perfect tea mug now. I mean, NOW. But I can't afford it, NOW. So all I can do is look at my current mug and call it inferior. *sigh*
