How It Works:

Subscribe Anytime!
Get the current Tea box immediately - we ship the same week as your purchase!
Every 3 months, we release a new box and send it to you. The current Pig box launched February 1st and will be available until the next box launches on May 1. NOTE: As of 5/12/23, there is a 90-day ceasefire in the trade war, which should allow us to launch the next subscription box. The boxes are estimated to ship out August 1st! We also plan on delivering to UK and EU customers directly from our EU and UK warehouses. We will update all subscribers ahead of delivery and nobody will be charged without notice. WE ARE NOT STOPPING THE SUBSCRIPTION CLUB, just giving ourselves more time to deal with customs. Read our FAQ here.

THIS SEASON'S BOX: Jesse’s Tea Club Box #10: Pig

It's an OINKER of a subscription box with three awesome teas!

Tea #1: Sister Ai's Yunnan Rose Shai Hong

1 x 50g Mini Tea Cake (7-10 sessions)

Might be the most beautiful tea cake we've made so far!

Jesse Says:

Yunnan is famous for its tea and roses, and both of those are in this gorgeous mini tea cake.

The tea base is Sister Ai's "Shai Hong" or "Sun-dried Red" tea. The sun-drying creates a sweet and clean flavor that is not heavy and perfect for sipping.

Sister Ai, our tea farmer partner in China, pressed these cakes with petals from Yunnan roses, known as "Red Ink" roses, a type of rose grown specifically for their fragrance.

The result is a unique blending of two of the greatest prides of Yunnan province and a tea which is intensely floral and sweet without being saccharine or overly perfumey.

Tea #2: Taiwanese Four Seasons Oolong

1 x 50g tin (7-10 Sessions)

Sweet and Clean Taiwanese Oolong

Four Seasons is a "Qing Xiang Xing" or "Clean and Fragrant Type" oolong. It releases a floral, fresh scent, and is a tea where the fragrance of the tea is one of the highlights of the whole experience.

Oolong teas are partially oxidized, which means they lie between "unoxidized" green teas and "fully oxidized" red teas. The middle ground is like a spectrum, and the Four Seasons and other Clean and Fragrant Type Oolongs are closer to the unoxidized side.

As such, this type of tea tends to have a lighter, "sweet water" flavor, matched with some green freshness similar to a green tea, but with still more depth of flavor than a green. The sweet aftertaste is a sign of good tea quality.

Tea #3: Yunqing's 2013 Chen Xiang Shou Pu'er

1 x 50g Bag (7-10 sessions)

SSSSSNAKEEEEE

THERES A SNAKE IN MY BOX!

Even though it's the pig box, this is the Year of the Snake, and one sliiiiithered into the sub box!

This tea is from my tea guy Yunqing, who since 2012 has been one of my personal tea guys. His knowledge of pu'er is deep and comes from many years of running his own operation in Yunnan and drinking hundreds of pu'er tea cakes.

This 2013 tea is called "Chen Xiang" which translates roughly to "aged fragrance." The clean, deep, earthy scent from cooked pu'er has hints of leather and camphor, and is one of the best parts of this tea.

Smooth with a clean mouth feel, this shou is a nice treat. It has a crispness in the first steeps with a rich, darker, smoother character through the middle steeps.

Both the aging and wet piling processes remove caffeine content from the tea, meaning that shou pu'ers are a good candidate for people who are caffeine sensitive but still want some caffeine. Shou is also a good choice for people who enjoy tea later in the day.

Drinkers who want all the caffeine can drink the first wash steep, which will be lighter in flavor but contain the most caffeine.

THIS SEASON'S TEA PET + CUP

The winner of our Tea Pet Competition!

CLICK HERE TO SEE HOW WE MADE THESE!!!

We held a competition to design a pig tea pet, and Maisy's design won over 30 other applicants!

This earned her the top prize: $200 cash, 20 tea pets, 5 tea cups, and a portion of all sales of items with her work on them.

Made of white Dehua porcelain with red and black glaze, this sleepy boy is ready for a warm tea bath, any time, any where.

Made of white Dehua porcelain, these cups have a generous 120ml size and a subtle gold ring around the top. The original art is complemented with two seals, one from Maisey and one of the Jesse's Teahouse jade seal imprint.

Cup Size: 120ml

ABOUT MAISY

I wanted to capture the personality of the pig in the lunar zodiac: gentle, capable, and generous. I like to think the pig balances rest with hard work, and knows that taking care of yourself fuels your ability to care for others. I hope this tea pet reminds you to pause, get comfy, and reward the work you do.

TEA CLUB FAQ:

Can I get one box without subscribing?

Yes, you can! Just place your order above and click "ONE-TIME PURCHASE”. You will receive the current season’s Tea Subscription Box with no further shipments automatically being billed or shipped out to you.

Of course, you can also subscribe and save, and cancel at any time. I'm confident you will love the service!

How often do the Subscription boxes launch?

A new Subscription box launches and gets shipped once every season (4x year- February 1st, May 1st, August 1st and November 1st, unless otherwise noted). Subscribers automatically get their boxes billed and shipped on that date! Remember you can always pause your subscription if you want to skip a cycle.

Can I buy Shipping Insurance?

No need! The Insurance is included in the price :) *Please note that this does not apply to one time purchases.

I'm International, can I still subscribe?

Absolutely! Please just be aware of your country's customs fees and tariffs as those are not included in the subscription price.

I want to make a change to my subscription, like adding or subtracting items.

You can do that by following the steps in this blog post!

I still have questions!

If you have any questions, email teafriendsupport@jessesteahouse.com and we will help you out.

Do I need to pay for a year upfront?

Nope! When you click "Subscribe and Save!" you will get the discount immediately, but will only be charged for today's purchase.

New teas will be delivered once every 3 months and you will only be charged when each box ships.

I hope this will make the club more accessible to people who don’t have a years’ worth of tea money to spend all at once.

Special Tea Club Member Perks?

Once you subscribe, you get to be a member of Jesse’s Tea Club!
