This time of year is always crazy. As it gets colder, understandably, people want more tea. Then then holidays get closer any everyone is shopping for gifts (or for yourself, I do that too, haha.) And then on top of all that, it's MAGFest prep time.
Yep! We'll be returning to Super MAGFest 2025, January 23-26, 2025 in National Harbor, MD. This will be our third year returning! I think they really like us there <3
Apologies for delays in shipping for a bit because of all of this. I'm for sure prioritizing holiday orders, but there's a lot to juggle. Last year at MAGFest, I actually sold out of all the tea I took! So I'm making sure to get more together to take this year.
Last year, as a convention limited item, I offered the Chromatic Dragon tea sample box. I knew I had always planned to eventually add 5 new teas for the Metallic Dragons, and while I was getting all these ordered, I decided I should make the sample boxes available online as well! I love the teas I've picked out for these dragons. It always amazes me how teas all come from the same plant, but there's such a vast variation in flavor depending on the growing location, conditions, and how it's processed after picking.
Adding these to the long awaited Baldur's Gate 3 inspired collection and there's SO many new teas. The BG3 collection took a lot longer than I wanted it to. I just ran into so much... whatever "writer's block" is for flavor mixing... I guess just general creative block? Minthara's was the the one that too the longest and ended up delaying my target launch date by a week. But ultimately, even though it took a year, I'm happy with how the collection has turned out. I think there's something for everyone in there, and I really tried to incorporate more herbal blends for those that don't want caffeine.
Anyway, those are the updates for now. Thanks so much for reading!
