This loose leaf tea storage tin bears a hinged, latching lid and gasket to provide serious protection of your tea from air, light and moisture. The larger of our two storage tins, this one measures 6.5 inches H and 3.6 inches D, and is sized to almost fit one of our bulk-sized tea packages.
Note: In many circumstances, an entire bulk-sized tea package will not fit fully in this tin.
Made in China.

I love the seal on this container--it's airtight and secure, and easy to open and close. And I did fit an entire bulk package of Ti Kuan Yin oolong. It took a bit of gentle tapping, but it all fit.

These are great storage tins--I really do wish I could empty a bulk bag into one. But I'm very happy with the seal. It is truly airtight. Thanks.

The tin is of excellent quality. The hinge mechanism and inner rubber gasket provide a very sturdy tight fit. I have no doubt my tea is not being exposed to light or air. The other reviewer gave this container only 3/5 stars because of the inability to fit a bulk size bag of tea into it rather than actually rate the product for its functionality. However I would suggest Aubrey or Jeremy revise the description. I recently purchased four bulk bags of tea (black green oolong and chamomile) and NONE of them fit into a single container. I almost managed to get the chamomile to fit but that's because the flowers are highly compressible. In short rest assured this container is of very high quality but there is a very high probability you won't fit a bulk bag of tea into it.

I bought three of these and they are of good quality but they do not not hold a bulk bag of Arbor tea for any of the three teas I buy. I have anywhere from about 2/3 C to 1 1/2 C left in the bags which are now resealed and in the freezer. That's disappointing.
