delicious tea and a sense of whimsy

we got really into tea a few years ago. really into. a kettle and tea bags and leaves and a box to store it and a teapot to brew it. i've not yet used the teapot altho i have used the hell outta the kettle. 

not really sure why i bought so many teas... the only one i really like is called constant comment. it's a type of spice tea made by the bigelow tea company. it comes in black and green, and used to be i could only find the green on trips to NYC but now it is of course available from amazon, the killer of all adventure and whimsy. 

bigelow is a family owned tea company, in business for 75 years, with constant comment being the flagship product. from the company's website:

"In 1945, inspired by an Early Colonial recipe, Ruth Campbell Bigelow disappeared into her New York brownstone kitchen to create a better cup of tea."

they sell all sorts of gifts off their website including a nicely engraved wooden tea chest and, for this one i'd take an adult M, the bigelow tea shirt.

delicious tea and a sense of whimsy. what's not to love?
