So, I feel I've waited long enough for the Hawaiian tea Co. to get back with me. I've emailed them twice since initial contact with no reply.
I'm ordering the Nilgiri this week and will be getting it out as soon as possible. I'm sorry I've taken so long on this one. I was really hoping we could sip on Hawaiian tea. If he does get back with me anytime soon, I'll send you guys info on how to order from them.
Sorry,

Ordering the Nilgiri. Start PM'ing your addy's so I can ship stuff out once it comes in. Some of you will get tea in tins, some in baggies.

This an Black Tea?!?! From India?!?! WTF, I thought this was senchapu chat....
Sign me up too if I'm not too late, I love a good Nilgiri. If I am too late what would it take to change your mind?

I have most of the addresses, but some of you I haven't gotten pm's from. I'd like to have the tea out this week if i can.
I had a pot (actually two) of the Nilgiri and I must say it is heaven in a cup. Brews up a beautiful golden color. Tastes very sweet for a black tea and its smooth all around.
I realy hope you guys enjoy it as much as I do. Though I love sending you all tea there is a certain bit of remorse that I won't have two giant sacks of tea on my desk for much longer. The leaves are quite large and I don't have access to a scale, so I'm doing the best I can to get equal amounts. I recommend boiling for 4-5 min. I didn't have my timer the first go around so I just waited until it looked "right."
Enjoy.

I'm sooo looking forward to this Dustin, thanks a lot! Take some pics of the tea bags, etc so we can experience some of that goodness too.

Sky, I have an envelope for you but no addy.
Olivier, I'll have to mail yours out on monday. You and Proinsias's packages are going to take the longest, and for that I am sorry. Had to do cheapest shipping.
I hope it arrives in good condition.
Yourn,
