Well…I’m apparently also a novice tea afficianado. I ordered a tea pot from Teavana online shortly after I bought some tea. It arrived quickly and it looked just like the picture on the website. But it came with no instructions. Oh, well, I’ve boiled water many times in a tea kettle. A-ha. Did you catch that??? In a tea KETTLE. That’s different than a tea pot. You see, you don’t put a tea pot on the stove. When water kept boiling over, I finally got on the phone and talked to the Customer Service rep. She said that tea pots don’t go on the stove and putting them on there could cause an explosion! Well…HE-LLO! Why wasn’t there a warning on the box? I’m sure I’m not the only tea drinker out there who doesn’t hesitate to think that a cast iron pot can’t go on the stove!!! So, needless to say I let the person on the other end know that Teavana should really put precautions and warnings all over their tea pots! …So now you know (if you didn’t already). Never ever put a tea pot on any heat. So I mentioned to you I was a casual tea drinker. Well…I’m apparently also a novice tea afficianado.
