"It's a nice tin, quite plain and the lid doesn't feel tight, I had to put a strip of tape around the rim just to make it a little more snug. last thing I want is my tea getting soggy."

Reviews
Poor
"Its just a tin and sadly the lid isn't even tight. Comes off with minimal pressure so the tea will likely go stale much faster than if I had left it in its resealable packet."
"Love these caddys, might be worth looking at a more airtight lid though (maybe a screw top)."
Ok
"Could do with a second lid to keep it air tight and a smaller size option as I like lots of teas so don’t want large amounts at any on time."
Does the job
"This does the job for storing teas. However I bought 3 of them and 2 the lids are quite loose so not sure how fresh it will keep the tea"
Good size
"Great size"
It’s a tin.
"It’s very tinny and works very well."
Caddy
"I love these daddy's they are easy to use and keep the tea dry fresh and in one place."
Less about the tea, more about the staff.
"I came into the Oxford store near closing time. I had a very autiscal meltdown prior to this and my heqd was spinning. The team of two were lovely and comforting and I really want to say a big thanm you to them (and for my badge). Thank you you too."
Very handy
"I drink enough of the same sorts of tea to justify filling one of these up. Much more convenient than a pouch."
Q&A
- Can you make an option where you can put a label on the caddy to know what tea is inside. I end up having to stick paper on it to know what’s inside which slightly ruins the look of the caddy.
- Hi Ele, I absolutely understand where you're coming from and will be passing your feedback on to the team! Thanks Katie @ B&B
- how much 10 percent from 50g pouch (25 cups) is it from £7.35
- Hi Matthew! Yes we give a 10% discount on replacement tea if you bring in your tea caddy! This should equal 74p from a 50g bag. Thanks. Katie @ B&B
- Is the tea caddy suitable for sticky chai too? If not do you sell containers that are? I buy the 150g refill bags
- Hello Eleanor, I would say no they are not - the Sticky Chai would dry out in a tin. We sell these blends in sealable jars with the refills designed to top them up. I think any similar sealing, glass jar would also work. Andi @ B&B
- How tall is the caddy?
- Hi there, thanks so much for asking! They're 16.8cm tall. I hope they fit into your tea cupboard!
- What volume can the tin hold? I gather it holds 150g like the tins you buy for tea, but just wanted to make sure :)
- Hi Hanna, Thanks for your question. You are absolutely right, in that these caddies are designed to hold 150g of tea - however, depending on the weight and density of the tea you're putting in there, they can in fact hold quite a bit more than this weight, too. A denser tea, for example a fruit blend, takes up less space than a lighter blend (a peppermint tea for example) so you could fit more in. I do hope this makes sense and don't hesitate to be in touch if you have any other questions! Happy sipping, George @ B&B
