Stacking tins

Just realized you can stack these metal tea boxes. Turns out, the dimensions haven’t changed over the decades.

Top tin: Fortnum & Mason Royal Blend, bought around 2018. I ran out of the original tea years ago, so now it’s filled with Taylors of Harrogate Assam Black Tea.

Bottom tin: A vintage tin I got from my grandma — probably from somewhere between the 1950s and 1980s. It’s currently home to some cheap, low-quality pu-erh from my local Chinese shop. Surprisingly tasty for the price.

I love old tins, very cool design!

Cheap pu-erh is the best pu-erh

Have tried fancy pu-erh as well, but I just don’t think it’s that much better. Maybe as an occasional treat… The cheap stuff is good enough for my daily tea.
