Kusmi Tea Originals Gift Set - Five Loose Teas in Miniature Tins - Includes Earl Grey Blends: Bouquet of Flowers No.108, Anastasia, Prince Vladimir, St. Petersburg & Russian Morning No.24

This sampler is just plain fun. Feels like a treat -- even though it's really not that spendy when you realize how many cups of tea you get from these things. Yes, the tins are little (and that's part of their charm -- they are ADORABLE. I love them and will use them even after they are empty. Perfect for stashing tiny secret things or just for refilling with tea to take on the go.). But as other reviewers have noted, you'll get many cups of tea from each little tin. I do get two ~10 oz. cups from each teaspoon of tea, and there are more teaspoons of tea in each tin that you would expect.The flavors of the tea are lovely -- not too assertive (it's hard to make them bitter). I don't think they'd stand up to milk, but a wee bit of honey makes them sing (though they are perfectly fine without honey, too). The scent of the tea is stronger than the taste, some might argue. I don't mind that. If I want an assertive tea, I have others in my stash that serve that purpose.Others have also noted that this is a good way to sample Kusmi's teas -- and I agree! In fact, I've already ordered three larger tins after trying teas in this sampler pack (Anastasia -- an early grey tea; Kashmir Tchai -- a non-peppery, but fragrant, lovely chai tea; and St. Petersbourg -- I don't even know how to describe this one, but is it good and I like it for dessert. Check out the reviews for that tea. It has hard-core fans.).This isn't low-quality tea, but it probably isn't the highest quality tea, either (I am sure that many folks who are totally into tea would not like the fact that these are scented teas), but I love them for everyday use. True tea enthusiasts -- you know, the people who never, ever put milk or sugar in tea and who think that earl grey is an abomination to tea -- would probably dislike this product. I mention this not to dissuade you from buying it, but just as a heads up in case you're thinking about buying this for a gift. This tea is good for some types of tea drinkers, but not for others.I, however, adore these teas and will probably buy a second set so that I can give each tin away individually to people who are a good match for each blend. It's the little things that make our mundane lives better, and these teas in their pretty tins are one of those things for me.

These are a little pricey but worth it. Best tasting teas. So good!

Received this as a Mother's Day gift. I had gotten just one can awhile ago, and it was love at first taste. The variety and flavors included in the set just carry me to heaven.Amazon: du bon service, du bon thé.

These are good tea, but they are very small. The picture makes it hard to see how little they are. I purchased them thinking they were a larger than they actually are. These look like a set of a travel pack or sampler cans. They are only apprximately 2 inches or so in diameter. They are not very large at all. If you want them to just try and see which one you like, then get a bigger version of these, they will be perfect for you. But if you are thinking these are 3.5 to 4 inch diameter cans, they are not.

Excellent tea and enjoyable variety

Got this for my girlfriend, who happens to be of 2nd generation Russian ancestry, and she loved this. She's become sort of a Kusmi Tea evangelist since I bought this for her, sharing it across social media! I've actually tried it as well and they're all very deep, sophisticated, flavorful blends. The packaging is excellent as well. Love the ornate little time each of these comes in. Definitely recommend it!

I love this tea! I was given Prince Vladimir as a gift and decided to try the sampler set. Though the mixture is different for each one, the basic underlying mellow tea flavor is consistent in all of them and makes for a fragrant, soothing cup of tea. I recommend trying this!

Beautiful packaging which will be easy to wrap. All of their teas are worth sampling.
