Update: 11/13/2017 This review still stands and this product is still going strong. Excellent quality ________________________________________________________________________________________________ I've had the sacred tea tumbler for a few days now and I feel it's high time for a detailed (and lengthy) review. If you want a quick and simple recommendation, then yes, I highly recommend this product. But if you want a bit more detail about it, then read on. First Impression: The packaging alone is on another level. Simply put, it screams quality. There’s an almost obsessive attention to detail on the box. Bold fonts and lettering that invites you to search for and read every single message on the packaging. What I’m saying here folks is that one look at the packaging is enough to convince you that the product was designed with a lot of thought and care. Something else that really caught my attention are the included extras in the packaging. Extras, you ask? It’s not enough that the tea tumbler is so elegantly package, nope! The designers even included a small but very warm welcome note, a lovely little poem and a thank-you booklet. Now to some, this might seem like a meaningless gesture, but you know what? It’s the little things. It’s a note that made me smile and say, “This is a company that truly cares about its product and customers”. I considered uploading a few pictures of the booklet and poem, but decided against it in the end. Rather not spoil the “surprise”. And, speaking of customer service, I found them incredibly friendly and quick to respond. Thumbs up to Peter and Carmen! The Tea Tumbler: Now this is where the real fun begins. Take the actual product out of the box and you’re greeted with what’s in my opinion the most beautiful and elegantly designed glass tea tumbler out there right now. Once again, the attention to detail on it borders on obsessive. It’s beautiful without being too “loud”. It’s artistically detailed without being garish. I found it sleek, classy and believe without a doubt that this product was designed by people with a lot of care and dedication. The tea tumbler itself is made of glass but it seems durable and strong. Naturally, a hard knock on a tough surface will destroy it (one of the included cards in the packaging tells you as much about caring for the glass). I’m also happy to report that it functions as promised and it’s quite easy to use. No complications or complex parts to assemble or disassemble, just a simple process to get your brew going. There are instructions included to help you get started, but rest assured, it’s straightforward and painless. Note, the tumbler is insulated (double walled glass). Once you have your hot tea brewing, the glass will get warm, but not uncomfortably so. Just warm enough for you to go, “Yeah! It’s on baby!”. Conclusion: No regrets! This is a beautiful product. It’s also high quality. Buy it if you love tea or heck, buy it and have it on display on a table. It’s really that beautiful. I have no qualms about supporting a company that cares about its products and treats their customers with care. That’s how you do customer service. Also, I wish the company also sold a dedicated padded sleeve for it to help minimize the possibility of accidental bumping for those moments when we’re moving about. I’m fully aware that there are third party options like neoprene sleeves out there, but I’d prefer something designed by sacred Lotus love instead solely because of their insane attention to detail and beautiful designs. Hope you enjoyed reading this review. I’ll post an update in the future, but until then, thanks for reading.
