Choose the Pick Five sampler if you want to explore five distinct teas of your choice. Choose the Pick your Blends Starter Kit if you want four teas plus filters, tasting cards, and tea-time extras. Choose a curated set if you would rather start with a ready-selected collection of three blends.
Each option offers small tea portions for exploring flavors. The main differences are how many blends you receive, who chooses them, and what comes alongside the tea.
Pick Five: for choosing your own tasting lineup
The Pick Five Artisan Loose Leaf Tea Sampler includes five distinct artisan teas of your choice. Each selection comes in an individually sealed ½ oz kraft pouch.
Each pouch makes approximately 5–8 cups, depending on taste. We recommend this sampler when exploring more blends is your priority and you already have a way to brew loose leaf tea. Its listed contents are the five tea pouches; brewing filters are not listed as included.
The Starter Kit: four teas with useful extras
The Pick your Blends Loose Leaf Tea Starter Kit includes four teas of your choice, each in an individually sealed ½ oz kraft pouch. Use the dropdowns on its product page to choose your four teas from the available blends before adding the kit to your cart.
Alongside the tea, the kit includes 20 tea filters, four tea-tasting note cards, one herb-infused sugar, a downloadable Tea Cups Coloring Book, and a coupon for 25% off your next purchase of tea. Each ½ oz tea pouch makes approximately 5–8 cups, depending on taste.
This is our recommendation for someone beginning to explore loose leaf tea or who enjoys comparing flavors and recording favorites. Follow the brewing directions on each pouch: tea amounts, water temperatures, and steeping times vary by blend.
Curated sets: three blends chosen around a theme
Prefer a ready-selected lineup? Our curated sets bring together three blends, each in a resealable ½ oz pouch.
For caffeine-free variety
The Caffeine-Free Weekend Warrior Tea Set includes Beach Cottage Comfort, Mountain Valley Mint, and Woodland Trek. All three blends are caffeine-free, with sweet herbal, mint-and-apple, and woodland-inspired flavors.
For a range of coastal tea styles
The Beach Getaway Tea Set includes Beach Cottage Comfort, Blueberry Beach Breeze, and Fog Horn Grey. Explore herbal, fruity green tea, and creamy Earl Grey character. The three pouches come together in a muslin pouch with the hand-stamped Beach House Teas logo. This set includes both caffeinated and caffeine-free blends.
For woodland, smoky, and minty flavors
The Pacific Northwest Outdoor Tea Set includes Woodland Trek, Beards Hollow, and Mountain Valley Mint. The three pouches come in a logo-stamped muslin pouch. Choose this collection to explore honeybush with woodland character, smoky Lapsang Souchong, and crisp mint. It includes both caffeinated and caffeine-free blends.
Which is best for a gift?
We recommend the Starter Kit for a recipient new to loose leaf tea because it includes tea filters and tasting cards. Pick Five is a good fit when you know which blends the recipient would like to try. A curated set makes the choice simpler when a flavor theme or caffeine preference points you toward a particular collection.
Before ordering, check the full ingredients and caffeine information for each selected blend. A customizable sampler or starter kit does not have one fixed caffeine profile: it depends on the teas you choose.
Make the choice around your tea routine
For five different teas of your choice, start with Pick Five. For four teas and brewing extras, choose the Starter Kit. For a themed three-tea collection, choose a curated set. Whichever you pick, brew each tea according to its own pouch directions and make a note of the flavors you want to enjoy again.
