Maum Teabags by WDARU

I received an email with all these images showing creative tea bags packaging. Decided to google and find the creative people who designed them.

Maum Teabags designed by WDARU
These series of teabags look like little people having a bath or soak in the teacup. It fit most common cup sizes and come packaged inside beautiful tea boxes as shown in the images taken from their website. I kind of find it too cute to be used. Hehehe

I think these images shows the designer's intent on how the teabags would be used. :)

I find that doing these things are good avenue to display and use all those creativity juices in your mind. Keep up coming with more designs, WDARU! Although I'm not sure many people are willing to pay extra for the packaging unless it's as gifts. ;)

Other creative teabags. I'm not sure if these are also in the Maum range.

My Cuppa Tea

My Valentine's day was more of a CNY celebration but I was adamant to get a V-day gift. ;) I have to admit; I was a tad disappointed when I got my gift but after using it, I guess my valentine knows what I really need. :)

Bodum: New Yo-Yo Set (Mug & Tea infuser)

Why such a practical gift? Well, I am a tea-drinker. I love all sorts of tea but not to the extend I can tell the different with how-many-years-old high grade tea. I just love my cup of tea without sugar or milk.

I have always the problem of needing to sieve my tea leaves as some of the tea leaves are very fine. Not all teabags produce the right flavour from brewing a cup of tea leaves. Hence, occasionally I still buy a box/ packet of tea leaves. Here are some that I have : green tea and rooibos tea. (Will review the taste
& brand individually someday, I hope)

Green tea - it's sold in one of those stall whereby the sales person will offer you a cup to taste it. I've always been a fan of green tea because I find the strong taste of black tea unappealing. It's supposed to beneficial for your health. I love Japanese green tea (ocha) too!

Rooibos tea - supposedly caffeine-free and high in antioxidants. I got myself a pack when I was in Cape Town many years back. Hence, when I saw a packet being sold in Cold Storage, I had to grab it. Unfortunately, it was only in tea leaves form. In fact it was packed fully in the box without any plastic packaging or any sorts. I find the smell was not contained but after infusing it, the taste is still there. (Can't tell you the brand as I threw the box after opening it)

With this new gadget, I can easily have my cup of tea in 3 steps!

Hence, I can enjoy my cup of tea in my brand new mug and infuser! :) I just love the tea strainer (yo-yo) which is so convenient!
