Glass Jar 12oz Customer Reviews

These stackable containers are the best! The lids are airtight which keeps your tea fresh. The clear container makes it easy to identify which tea is stored for quick accessibility.

I like being able to see my teas. I bought some water soluble labels to label my teas and to list the brewing information.

They're jars. They hold tea. They're nice =). Seriously.

This jar is perfect for holding your teas! The seal is great on it, it's simple in design so it's not distracting... I took the idea from another reviewer, but cut out the name and instructions and slip in into the jar so you don't have to worry about remembering.

I like this jar it looks nice with a more decorative or high end Tea filling it. I will see how it goes in usage and how sturdy it is. The lid feels loose, though I can feel that the rubber does stick nicely to the glass.

Simple and elegant, I like the stainless steel lid and the attractive logo. There is a little bit of resistance when removing the lid or putting it back on, showing that it's air-tight. I enjoy being able to see my tea without it being damaged by light

Love the way this container looks with the tea inside. Would be nice to have a label area on the container to identify the tea.

Small but very cute. Not sure this is the best one but I like it

The glass jar is amazing I put my favorite blend in this and the smell never faded and the flavor was never dull these really work! I plan on getting more for all my teas I keep year round.

a smaller version of the other glass jar - still great. wish they were a little cheaper though

I wish it were a little more substantial, as I feel like the slightest ding is going to cause it to shatter, but it's a sleek design and looks great on a countertop. Be sure you wash it *very* thoroughly when you get it, as the lid was coated with a very thick layer of grease that a quick, soapy swoosh was not sufficient to remove. I'm very glad I noticed it and didn't just think the rubber was simply shiny. It took a lot of soap and actual scrubbing to get it off.

I love these jars and and love that they are tinted to protect the tea quality.

Great jars. Very clean design. Stack fairly nice on top of each other. I printed off return mailing labels and placed them on the jars with the steeping instructions. Look great. Only thing is I wish they would seal a bit tighter, but don't get me wrong they seal well. I just have a personal preference and would like just a bit more seal.

I LOVE the jars available at Adagio, they are the perfect sizes, the 24 oz for the more frequently brewed teas and the 12 oz for those that are used occasionaly

Perfect for the tea I keep at work. Looks great on my desk.

Compact storage, and I love that's it's glass. Durable and the lid fits naive and snug to keep the tea fresh.

Beautifully displays my tea! And convienent too!

This jar looks small, but holds a ton of tea. I have 2 of the 12 oz jars and you can stack them. Pro tip - Cut the label off the tea bag and stick it in the jar so you always know what tea is inside.

Simple, clean lines - very convenient and doubles as a display piece.

These jars are amazing! I wish I had enough money to order them for all my teas. I only ordered one along with the regular metal containers and chose my prettiest tea to put in it. The lid seals really tightly around the tea and it's good for stacking. If you want to show off your tea this is the jar. (These are the ones Adagio uses in their stores as well.)

I love seeing my tea. I put the prettier ones in these jars. As much as I like the tins, these will have to replace them. They look so much better and could be a decorative piece all on their own. I am slowly accumulating them.

These seal nicely and store tea well, but they are kind of slippery, so aren't great for stacking.

I bought this as a gift for my mother, to go with the Oriental Spice tea I bought her. It's lovely and goes well in her kitchen. Would buy again.

Love being able to see the contents and know that it is protected from the light.

Regarding labeling--I just use a little piece of washi tape on the bottom of each jar. Dry-erase markers work but are harder to see. I recognize most teas on sight, but I keep the ideal brewing temp on the washi as a reminder (I can't remember them all). Between this and the larger size, I think I have 16 of these jars, and I just ordered more. They are simple and elegant and do exactly what they are intended to do--keep your tea fresh and delicious. The 12oz jars are perfect for teas you want to keep in smaller quantities, as they are designed to stack well.

These jars are the perfect size for the 3oz. bags of tea I bought in the same order! They seal nice and are clearly airtight.

I love how it keeps my teas fresh and pretty looking all at the same time!

Great container for smaller amounts of tea. Looks great on the kitchen counter

I really love the way these look. I think I might have already left a good review on these but they just get better every time I get another one. One day I will have an entire wall of these to show off all my teas!

This jar is excellent! Fits way more loose leaf tea in here than I expected! will be ordering again!

I have to say, I really like this container vs the tins I had gotten before. Being able to see the tea's is a huge bonus for me and though I was doubtful, the top really does seal very well. I just wish there was a way to write the name of the tea on the container itself. As it is, I cut out the name from the bag and just slip it into the container, which works pretty well too.

I think the 12 oz glass jar is the perfect size to store teas

Very nice - cover is easy to take on and off, but it still leaves a good seal.

These jars are great for storing tea, and just about anything else you could want to store in them.

Beautiful, air tight, and the perfect size. It's a great display for the tea I love to drink.

I really like the look of these jars and the fact that I can see my tea while it's protected from light. I like that they are lightweight and I think the top fits nicely. I do wish there was a way to label them but I'll just have to go to the craft store and get creative! I was also happy with the amount of tea that fit.

I bought this for my boyfriend and I to store our tea. It's a lovely little jar that is just the right size for us. I prefer not to have anything on the counter, so we store it in our tea drawer. However, I still love that it has the feature that keeps the UV rays out for wonderful tea freshness! It does feel a little delicate, but I like the dainty feel. My boyfriend would prefer it to feel less fragile. The seal on ours works and keeps the tea fresh. I would recommend this to anyone in need of a tea jar.

Updating now that I have fixed them - upgrading from bad to good after plugging the small airhole with some rubber that I cut off of a pen grip. Pretty easy fix, and still does not seal COMPLETELY (square rubber plug in a round rubber hole), so it is still possible to open and close, but now actually seals in the good tea aroma. If you order these, I highly recommend this quick fix, even though it's annoying.

-Original Review-
These jars look great, and hold a good amount of tea. however, they are NOT airtight. I ordered 5 of these to start storing all my tea safely, rather than using the resealable bags that the tea ships in. I was very disappointed when I open my tea drawer and smell an overwhelming sent of combined tea aromas (although it smells great). Closer inspection revealed that the rubber seal on the lids is actually designed with a small airhole to make opening and closing easier. but this defeats the entire purpose of the airtight jar. I now have a drawer full of tea that will not last as long as it would have in the original shipping bags, and I am wishing I had ordered the non-glass tins instead.

This jar is exactly what i hoped it would be. Looks really nice and stores my tea perfectly!

A great way to display your colorful teas, however the glass is way too thin.

I have three of these jars and I just love them. They look so nice filled with tea on my countertops.

I wish the lid sealed a little better. I love the appearance of the jar though

A very nice looking jar with some heft to it. I wouldn't store anything long term in this even with UV protection but great for keeping short term tea in.

Perfect little jar. it seems to keep everything fresh, and I like being able to tell just by looking how much tea I have left (so I can order more before I run out!).

Great for the smaller bags of tea. It tea is so pretty in the glass jars.

I wish the lid sealed better. Be sure not to pick it up by the lid

I love these containers. They are perfect for storing tea and I love being able to see my teas.

Easy to clean, just wish this came with a washable label or something of the like so I could mark the type of tea I'm storing in it.

My teas look so pretty sitting in these jars on the countertop. The top fits easily, but still seals well.

Air tight sea, but not too tight. I like being able to see my tea!
