Rabbit Hole Collection By NovelTea Tins

Created by Noveltea Tins

NovelTea Tins are classic works of literature built into beautiful tea caddies. Inside, organic teas are blended deliciously to evoke the various stories of each namesake title. War and Peach? Pride and Peppermint? Do you have a taste for great literature? We want to provide you with some great taste IN literature. This year we’re back with three exciting new titles inspired by beloved children’s classics from Lewis Carroll, Beatrix Potter and J. M. Barrie.

We can fly! Pekoe Pan has landed!
almost 6 years ago – Tue, May 29, 2018 at 08:03:10 PM

Greetings dear backers! 

Just a quick (non-spell checked) update from the 'shipping department here in Mount Shasta: Pekoe Pan's tea blend has arrived and we're finally starting to ship larger orders of more than just 1-2 tins. 

The actual bags of tea are twice this size, but I'm pressed for time and need to pack, so this is the best picture I can offer today. :-)

As per your requests we have several orders in our priori-tea queue. If you're in a hurry to fly away to Neverland, shoot us an email at [email protected] and we'll move you up the queue. 

If you're in no hurry, are going away, have moved etc etc; now is also the time to email us and we'll do everything we can to have your teas/tins arrive when it works for you. 

Mix & Match

We keep getting requests, so I'll remind you of this option: If you'd prefer something different than the teas in your tins, let us know in an email. Want War and Peach in your Anise tin? No problem! 

Now, alas; back to packing!

Release the rabbits!

Hi everyone,

I've been meaning to update you earlier, but I've actually been busy fulfilling rewards. We began fulfilling the first rewards a few days after our last update. 

The first rewards to go out are those containing our Original and British titles, as well as Pu'er Rabbit. Some Anise in Wonderland orders are also going out. 

I really want to state how sorry we are for the delays and how much time this is taking. I hope you will agree the worth was worth it when you see the new designs in person. These designs are our best yet and they've won over everyone we've heard from so far.

'

Pu'er Rabbit Tea Towels
Around late next week orders with Pu'er Rabbit tea towels will also start shipping. The first batch is ready and from what we can tell they look fantastic! Emily, the wonderful maker of these, is back from her maternity leave and is now producing new towels rapidly. '

Anne of Green Tea Gables

Anne of Green Tea Gables
Don't have much to say, but I'm personally in love with the way Anne of Green Tea Gables turned out. The gusset pouch and Lily Jones' artwork just came together so nicely. Filling these bags take SO MUCH LONGER than our other re-sealable pouches,  but they feel much more true to the rustic atmosphere of Anne's world. 

As always; if you'd like to get your rewards as fast as possible; shoot us an email at [email protected] and we'll put you ahead in the queue. Don't forget to include your backer number with your email! We're also super grateful for everyone who's been writing and telling us you can wait. It really helps organize our rewards. 

Warmly, 

Jorgen, Mitch & Johnny

Pu'er Rabbit: squeezing under a gate near you soon!

Dearest backers!  

I'm thrilled to say that the Pu'er Rabbit labels arrived! This means we can begin fulfillment of orders with Pu'er in it (plus the original and british collections) as soon as his bookmark arrives next week.

Pu'er Rabbit Labels are ready!

Mix & Match

Thank you to everyone who's written us with your love and support AND your special requests. I've said it a few times; the silver lining of the delays has been that we can give individual attention to each backer. 

Don't want anise flavored tea? Email us and tell us your preferred tea and we'll switch it out in your tin. 

Also happy to say that the tea towel maker is back in business after a maternity leave. Will post the first towels as soon as we receive them.

Simon and Schuster giveaway

We were also contacted by Simon and Schuster a few months back; and they'll run a giveaway for Matcha Do About Nothing and their latest book on the villain of Othello. The giveaway starts on Monday; if it goes well there might be more giveaways coming up.

Amazon and NovelTea Tins

I should also thank everyone who's shopped with us on Amazon! In addition to your supportive emails the sales have truly boosted our spirits. To know that our creations decorate shelves and tea nooks all around the world really means so much after all the work we've put into designing them. But my mind wanders; time to get back to work. There's a rabbit to catch! 

Till next time,

Jorgen, Mitch & Johnny
