In this post I’d like to introduce you to a little passion project of mine – the CLUBBOX @ Siam Tea Shop.
If you’re reading this, chances are you already celebrate tea with genuine passion. You want to know more about your tea, because every piece of knowledge becomes part of your experience. And that’s exactly who I created the SiamTeas Clubbox for:
The Clubbox @ Siam Tea Shop is a flexible format for the theme-based bundling of several types of tea in generous tasting size and at preferential price.
Why “KLUB”-Box?
No worries: joining THIS club doesn’t mean paying membership fees, signing up for obligations, or dancing all night after buying a ticket with a free drink included. Much rather, you’re already in – simply by reading this, thereby outing yourself as a tea lover. So, yes, the box is for a well-defined circle of people: those who love tea. Whether you belong to it, however, is entirely up to you.
What does “flexible” mean?
“Flexible” here means no fixed release dates and no rigid rules. A new Klubbox appears whenever a theme knocks loudly enough on my tea door – and when I can represent it with teas available at Siam Tee Shop.
The frequency? Totally unpredictable. Sometimes a new box comes within weeks, sometimes the next theme takes longer to mature.
What does “theme-based” mean?
Each Clubbox revolves around a specific theme, usually rooted in origin or processing style – but sometimes it’s a combination of both. And sometimes it’s something completely different that crossed my path while exploring tea.
And yes – I’m happy to be inspired from within the “club.” If you have a great tea idea, send it my way!
What defines a “generous tasting size”?
Each Clubbox contains 20 g or 25 g of every tea. That’s enough for multiple infusions! You can experiment with dosage, water temperature, and steeping time – and discover how each tea unfolds under different conditions. This makes tasting not only more exciting but also lets you truly get to know each tea.
Special Price = Offer Price
And here’s to the bonus: I calculate the individual prices of 25 g of each tea – then subtract about 10%. Despite the work of packing, this turns the Klubbox into a genuine bargain for you.
