myteabox.ca Review February 2023
myteabox.ca is a monthly tea subscription service that offers top quality pure teas, blended/flavoured teas, and delicious caffeine-free herbals. Your box contains a delightful tea experience in the form of three new teas delivered each month. They kindly sent us this box to review.
Subscription Details
You will receive 2-3 high quality teas of all types, including pure teas, blended/flavoured teas, and herbal tisanes. The teas included are award-winners from the Global Tea Championships, while others come from the master tea crafters of small family farms in China, India, Nepal, Japan, Sri Lanka, and more. Tea happiness guaranteed!
When signing up, you may choose if they prefer to receive 2 or 3 pouches per box, and if you would prefer a monthly, 3-month, 6-month or 12-month renewal cycle. You will also be able to indicate if you prefer black, green, or herbal tea, or just go for the Surprise Me option. Boxes ship for free in Canada and the United States.
The teas come neatly packaged in a sturdy brown envelope. I am so excited! There is nothing like sitting down to a hot cup of tea to rewind after a long day.
Here are the teas I received for January:
Almond Sugar Cookie Dessert Black
“This gorgeous tea is the perfect caffeinated indulgence. Strong black tea gets the sweet treatment with toasted almonds and almond sugar cookie, while the chocolatey and slightly smoky flavour of safflower balances everything out. Try it on its own, or add warm milk to further its decadence.”
This is the perfect cold weather tea! I love the addition of toasted almonds for a touch of nuttiness and sweetness.
Snickerdoodle Rooibos
“This delicious caffeine-free tea tastes like an indulgence without the guilt. Green rooibos is given the royal treatment with organic cacao nibs and a kiss of peppermint, beautifully balanced and rich.”
I do not enjoy chocolate in my tea (possibly because I prefer to drink my tea without milk), so unfortunately this is not really for me. It sounds like it will be delicious as a latte though!
Maghreb Mint
“Take a trip to North Africa with this worldly and spicy tea, an exotic and intoxicating blend of roasted green tea, peppermint, ginger, and cardamom. The warm nutty notes are pleasantly offset with aromatic clove and woody fennel, creating a unique and lively, unforgettable cup.”
I love love the addition of ginger root, peppermint, and fennel for some spice and aroma. Of the three, this one is my favourite. It with really good with sugar as suggested, but I think I prefer it as is.
Final Thoughts
I am really enjoying this subscription! Love that myteabox.ca includes important information like ingredients, caffeine levels, expiry dates, and brewing instructions like water temp and how long to brew right on the packaging. So convenient! Two of the tea are repeats from the last box, which is a little odd. I like those teas though, so it’s not that bad a thing. I really enjoy tea subscriptions as a way to try out new teas without the commitment to a full tin. This subscription will also be the perfect gift for any tea lover.
