Shipping Info

How we ship our tea

We currently send all international orders by Thailand Post Airmail (International Parcel Air). Every parcel has a tracking number, and we'll email it to you as soon as your order is on its way.

For international orders over 99 USD, we offer 50% discount on shipping fee. The discount is applied automatically at checkout.

Delivery within Thailand is free for orders over 20 USD.

20 USD tea gift

With every order over 60 USD (excluding shipping), you'll get free tea samples as a gift. You can choose any teas up to 30 g total weight and 20 USD total value. Just list them in the comments to your order. For orders over 99 USD, we cover half of the international shipping cost, and the tea gift is included as well.

Customs duties and taxes

United States. All customs duties and fees are already included in the shipping cost, so there is nothing extra to pay on delivery.

Europe. Import taxes and customs duties are paid by the recipient according to the rules of your country. They are usually collected by your local post office when the parcel is handed over.

In other countries, import charges depend on local regulations.

How to track your order

Arrival notices sometimes don't reach recipients, so we recommend keeping an eye on your parcel's status yourself. Official postal websites give the most reliable information; general tracking services often show incomplete data.

For the first few days after you receive your tracking number, you can follow the parcel on the Thailand Post website: track.thailandpost.co.th

After that, check the postal website of your country. The tracking number usually appears there about a week after the parcel leaves Thailand, while it waits in the customs warehouse for clearance. Around holidays and in busy periods, processing and delivery can take a little longer.

2024 Gaba Assam Black Tea Rolled

2024 Gaba Assam Black Tea Rolled
“Dark, slightly smokey, molasses, cinnamon. NOT floral. Very malty. NOT like an Indian Assam at all, except in tannic bite and metallic lingering taste. It's good. Definitely a get-shxt-done kind of tea, not one I consider to have a lot of nuance. I wish I liked it a bit more, but I'll develop a taste for it. It has a rich woody, round, spiced flavo...”

Taste gives a dry woody note on the palate, followed by a sweet aftertaste that resembles dried prunes and bark, with a touch of chinese medicinal herb....”

“- This is a second review, to find out how different this tea tastes now that it is a decade old - Brief (5-10 seconds) steeps in 90 Celsius water. Liquor is a clear medium amber in color. Taste gives a green-fruitiness on the palate right upfront, slightly jammy, followed by an aftertaste that is a mix of green plum wine and bark. Mouthfeel is...”
