Tom Chinese Tie Guan Yin Oolong-boks

The lid snaps shut with a satisfying click, and the tin’s interior is exactly the right depth for a week’s worth of loose leaves without crushing them. I’ve had cheaper tins that let the oolong go stale in days, but this one’s kept the aroma locked in tight since I transferred my stash.

The seal on this tin is what sold me — it snaps shut with a satisfying click that actually keeps my oolong from going stale between brews. The size is just right for a weekly stash, and it looks tidy on the shelf.

The interior is roomy enough for a decent stash of loose leaf, and the seal keeps things airtight without any fuss. I’ve had mine for a few weeks now and the tea still smells as fresh as the day I filled it.
