Giveaway

Free Tea!

This giveaway is closed. We hope to announce the winner very soon!

Sponsored by:


In this giveaway, one lucky winner will have delivered to their door a gift box of organic tea from Boston Tea Campaign. The prize is a full kilogram of tea certified to be genuine Darjeeling by the Tea Board of India

Included in the prize will be:
  • An award-winning 2008 First Flush black tea, blended by the BTC teamaster
  • A 2008 Second Flush black tea, blended by the BTC teamaster
  • A single-estate tea from the Ging Garden, a heritage garden planted in 1864, located in the Lebong Valley in West Darjeeling
  • An all-season blend of Darjeeling green tea

The winner will receive 250 grams of each tea for a total of 1 kilogram (2.2 pounds) with total retail value of $49.00





Boston Tea Campaign's parent company, the German Teekampagne, imports over 400 tons of Darjeeling tea per year, making it the world's leading importer of Darjeeling tea according to the Tea Board of India.

The importance of the Darjeeling seal:
“Darjeeling" is not always Darjeeling. The Tea Board of India estimates that up to 40,000 tons a year are sold as "Darjeeling" worldwide, although the district of Darjeeling only produces approximately 10,000 tons a year. To protect against the blending of genuine Darjeeling with cheaper teas from other areas, the Tea Board awards licenses and a seal of authenticity to companies that sell 100% pure Darjeeling.

The BTC's Darjeeling has also been tested for hundreds of chemical residues, with the results printed on each package. There is no cleaner, purer tea on the market.

Still have yet try a darjeeling as it is, this would be a nice addition for my taste buds, since I'm just now getting into tea.

I agree, as someone who has wanted to, but not yet tried, darjeeling... this would be fabulous!

I really enjoy a good quality darjeeling, particularly of the 2nd flush variety. This sounds like a great prize to win!

Darjeeling is my husband's favorite tea. He likes it with lemon and sugar.

I love darjeeling tea. It truly is a must-have for every tea loving fool out there (like me!).

Having said that, however, if I were to win, I'd gladly share with some of the Steepster.com folks who've lamented the fact that they cannot win if they're not in the U.S. Smiley

Entering, crossing my fingers.  Gotta love the Darjeeling.

Gah I take issue with your bot checker, the answer to 7-2+2 surely is 3 and not 7; Brackets;of;division,multiplication, addition, subtraction. SO add 2 to 2 and then subtract from seven = 3. Anyway a cuppa tea would make this all right :-)

Free tea, please  Cheesy
