Cards and tea!

I have neither forgotten nor forsaken my holiday cards and tea tradition! I merely realised early on that it wasn't going to happen in time for Christmas this year, and decided to make it a January thing.
(For anyone reading who wasn't here last year: every year I offer to send a card and/or tea to my online friends! Reciprocity isn't expected and you don't have to be shy about asking even if we don't know each other all that well; it's one of my favourite, low-key ways of appreciating and fostering the community of fandom.)
Respond when you can; there's no rush since I have no holiday deadline to make my cards irrelevant this time!
As usual, if requesting tea, please feel free to leave taste notes in the comments! Since it's going to be well past Christmas when I get the cards out, the cards will be non-holiday cards, but if you just really want a Christmas card for some reason, you can request one. :D

Thank you so much! They were all delicious! <3

I'm not a fan of "dessert-y" flavours or sweet fruits (for example, things like citrus or currant are fine, but vanilla or strawberry is a No, Thanks). I love mint, rosemary, bergamot, sage, and most other herbs/"plant" flavour notes (exception: anise/licorice), and most florals (though not jasmine)! Cinnamon is okay in small amounts - I love a good balanced chai!
