Tea sample swapping in Edmonton?

Hmmm... I wonder if there are many Edmontonians here who would be interested in trading sample size tea with each other, so we all get to know more teas from different sources, and perhaps even try teas before committing to an international order. Good idea? Bad idea? :roll:

Swaps and tastings are usually good ways to taste a bunch of teas you may not taste otherwise or even vendors you might not try.

We do have a tasting program on the forum as well called OTTI ... Official Tea Tasting Initiative. You can view previous tastings here and see what it is all about here:

Working on a few OTTI rounds currently!

I know! All the different teas and vendors out there and by yourself, you hardly get to try as many as you would like. Have been hawk-eyeing the OTTI forum. Pitty there doesn't seem to be anyone in or near edmonton interested in some local swapping... :cry:

Actually, I live in Southern Alberta and travel to Edmonton a few times a year. I will PM you.
