News: Tavalon's the new Willy Wonka!

I’ve gotta say it… I really want a golden ticket! Just like Charlie when he walked ever so dejectedly into the candy shop to collect a consoling bar of chocolate realizing he could never win as the last ticket had been found…

While I personally feel a tour of a tea facility would be almost equally as exciting… there’s no way I would turn down $1500 just for buying tea I like anyway!

I’ve reviewed a number of Tavalon’s teas including their NYC Breakfast and more recently their Indian Mint. All were very good.

This promotion is exciting and I sincerely recommend taking part. Unlike Wonka Bars, tea is pretty much universally healthy for you… So even if you don’t win the cash prize… you still get some good tea!
