So, the title might sound a little inflated but I’m in a
super awesome mood so everything seems super awesome.
Contest #1 – Win A Custom Blend (Flavored or Herbal Blend)
This is the first time we are trying this, so hopefully this
works out well but we think it will be fun.
We would like to offer a prize of 1 custom blend of 4oz of tea base plus
any additions to the base (this custom blend is valued up to $60 and can
potentially come out to 8oz of tea).
How the contest works:
Send us your ideas for a custom blend.
Each person can suggest up to 3 ideas.
Please keep the tea bases to teas we currently stock. Check here for base tea ideas (though we do
have some teas that are not listed, including: Bi Lo Chun, Darjeeling,
Moonshine, and a stronger Assam): http://www.butikiteas.com/. Herbals may include herbs, flowers, fruits, and
spices that we do not carry. Submission
for ideas are due by October 19th.
We will compile all ideas. If
there are duplicate ideas, the first person to come up with the idea will be
chosen. Some ideas might not be workable
for us. If an idea is not realistic for
us, we will email you back and let you suggest another idea. After all the ideas have been compiled, we
will choose the best 10 ideas and put them on our blog for voting. Voting will close November 2nd and the person
with the most votes will win. We will
contact the winner and discuss their thoughts on what the tea should taste
like. We will work on blending the tea
then send the winner a sample for 1 round of feedback. After the tea has been blended, the winner
may choose a name (within reason, keep it PG13) and the 4+ oz of tea will be
shipped out. We will then offer at least
a limited release of the tea so that everyone can have a chance to purchase the
blend.
Fine Print (Please read): Custom blends are risky. The tea might not turn out as
anticipated. We will do what we can to
get the blend as close as possible. Send
as much info about your blend ideas as possible. It’s easier to choose a blend if there is an
idea of what base tea will be used or at least what category of tea. A description would be even better. The more info we have the higher chance there
is to make it into the final 10. Please
also keep in mind that we are a vegan company, we can recreate many non-vegan
flavors but will not add non-vegan ingredients.
For instance, it is fine to suggest items such as marshmallow or cream
flavorings but we will not add dried meats.
Send your ideas (up to 3) to stacylim@butikiteas.com
with the subject line “Contest-Custom Blend”.
With your ideas, please provide us with your full name and make sure you
are sending the email from an email address you check regularly. We will not keep your email addresses after
the contest ends, send you unrelated emails or sell your email address. Please note it may take several days for us
to confirm your entry. Also, we would
love to see people discuss their ideas on here after they have submitted them. A discussion would be fun. Also, we would love to see feedback about
what you think of this contest.
