"Hi Guys!  I brew your tea every day, bottle it in French glass lemonade bottles or old wine bottles, keep it in the fridge, and it's the beverage of choice in my home.  No soda, just healthy tea, and everybody loves it!  I've converted numbers of friends...they try it and love it too.  They especially appreciate the strong, fresh flavor, unmolested by any sweeteners--and the fact that you can indulge [to] your heart's content without having to worry about your waistline.  The good health effects are just side benefits to the wonderful taste."

"I recently purchased a box of your Early Grey tea, and let me tell you it was deeeee-licious!  I've tried all kinds, brands, bags, loose, you name it.  Your brand stands out above all that I've tried."

"Your Classic Green tea is fantastic.  The best green tea ever...and I've had every brand imaginable.  I detect a slight smokey flavor which I love."

"Just wanted to tell you how much I love your English Breakfast tea!  I drink only black tea and have tried many over the years.  I discovered [The Original Ceylon Tea Company] brand a year or so ago, and have been using nothing else since!"

"I usually keep a half-dozen different brands of Earl Grey tea in my office.  Recently, a colleague and I had fun with a double-blind taste test of the different teas--yours and others.  In both cases, a 2-minute and 5-minute brewing, the one I rated highest was yours.  The others were good - Numi, Harney & Sons, Persean Tea, Taylors, Stash, One World, Ahmed - but yours was the winner!"

Were really moved by one letter we received.  A portion of this inspirational letter appears below.  Thank you, Linda!

"Hello Kit:

The (1001 Nights) tea that you promised to send me arrived a couple of days prior to my going in for a double mastectomy!  I decided to take a box of it along with me to the hospital for my overnight stay.  As I was sipping some of  my tea, a nurse was all excited at thte smell of it.  So, I shared a tea bag with her and she says that she now has a new favorite tea also!  The same think happened with my health worker, too.  Then each of the, told someone, so they too stopped by to comment on the tea and how much they liked it--so I had to give each of them som bags also!.  So far, everyoone that I share my tea with has gone crazy for its flavor, just as I have done.  (I love this stuff so much that I hate the thought of parting with even one bag, but I continue to share - ha, ha.)  I left the hospital with an empty box.  Glad to know I still have a few boxes here at home.

I plan to bring a thermos of my tea with me to the chemotherapy appointments, because sipping thee 1001 Nights tea honestly puts me in a relaxed state, and is sure to make the chemo go a lot easier.  I'll bring a few extra bags to share with my fellow chemo friends--it's sure to help them relax.

My 10-year old daughter and I are having 'mother-daughter' tea time almost every night since I was diagnosed.  It gives her a chance to ask questions and express her emotions and fears, and it gives me a chance to help her relax and realize I will be healed.

Anyway, thank you again for the tea!  I appreciate is SO MUCH!!!"
