Summary: Really nice, high-quality, diverse teas, for a good price
Comment: I got this set and their green tea sampler, along with a ForLife single-mug infuser, and I now have really amazing tea whenever I want it. The 6 teas are all quite different, with a huge variety of scent and flavor. Each tin is labeled with the proper water temperature and steeping time. (Although they should add a relative strength and/or amount indicator.)
The amount is remarkably generous for the price, given that these are gourmet teas, with full-size uncut leaves. I've had large mugs of each tea probably 4 times already, and I'm no more than 1/3 of the way into each tin. The quality is so high, and the flavors so rich, I tend to refill each mug at least once, and get a second cup nearly as good as the first.
These sets are three excellent things in one: first, they're a perfect introduction to a range of fine teas, like getting a 6-bottle tasting at the best wine shop in the city. Second, along with a mug infuser and an electric kettle, they're the perfect way to enjoy good tea at the office, with tons of variety. Last, they're just a great deal on a sizable volume of really nice teas. (Think of the money you'll save over Starbucks at the office: I'm probably paying $.25 a mug for this tea, even without the refills...)
(To do these teas justice, do be sure to spend 5 minutes reading about tea preparation. Learn to "read" the ballpark temperature of the water, depending on how hard it's boiling. And pour just a little water over the leaves and let them sit for a few seconds before you add the rest of the water. This releases all the aromas in the tea, so you can get a better feel for the distinctness of each one. And don't over-steep: that'll turn your tea bitter and uninteresting, covering up the flavors. This all can sound nit-picky, but it really makes a difference in your enjoyment of the tea. It also turns it into a much more meditative, relaxing experience, which is the point of good tea, right?)
