Hey everyone heres a little update! I got the box and have divided all the tea up. Everyones order was correct and is ready to go tomorrow! Im going to try my best to get some of the larger orders in the priced boxes but I may need additional funds if the small box is not possible. Obviously pictures of the shipment price will be provided! I will be shipping as fast and cheap as possible! Ive already opened my bags and I can say that im happy with how this went down. I hope you all will agree! :-)

Everyones orders went out yesterday but unfortunately a few of the domestic orders were too large to fit into the small priority box so I will be PM'ing you to get some of those funds re-cooped.

International orders went out just fine. I hope I filled out the slips correctly!

Please post when your package shows up and let us know how you like your tea!

ALSO, If you would like your tracking number, please PM me with your zip code and Ill respond back with the tracking!

Got mine too! Enjoying a nice cup of the Dark Roast TGY. I had only tried lighter roast and jade TGY's up until now, none of which were really up my alley. This is more like it! :)

Interesting :) Do you let it rest in the vacuum sealed bags? I would usually open it and make it rest in a tin...

Im glad to see most of the US members have their packages! This was my first group buy ever and I hope it was smooth for everyone! I tried my best to get the cheapest prices in shipping and with Mountain Tea; I hope everyone is happy with their purchase! :D

steanze, Answering you about resting tea: I wait at least a day before opening the vacuum-sealed packs. After that rest, I transfer tea that will be used soon to pouches & tins. I try to wait at least another day before using it. I don't know what is ideal or if it matters much.

I used to believe that having tea in a tea caddy to use in 2 - 3 weeks had a positive impact, but now I am not sure about that. My "tea caddies" probably let in too much air. When I open their lids, I am not greeted w/ aroma as I am when I open pouches. (I want 3-piece caddies made by Teadoff's Korean friend but cannot afford them).
