How do I keep my tea fresh?

Tea never really goes "bad," just loses some flavor.
Tea is best kept fresh by putting in a dark and dry, sealed in a closed container until using (and, after opened, kept as close to sealed as possible). This should keep the tea fresh up to one year (a little less for green and white teas). We do not recommend putting in the freezer, in that it will add moisture to the tea leaves, greatly reducing the flavor.

I love those tins... can I buy them without the tea?

We do not sell empty tins, as these were very prone to damage in transit. Many would arrived dented, and the cost of mailing replacements soon grew prohibitively high.

Looks amazing.....Can I get a free sample?

While we agree that our teas are among the "coolest" and best we do mail out free samples. However,we would limit the variety/quantity.Please mail us at info@teamoods.com regarding your requirement. We will send this through ordinary EMS service.
