The Best Gifts for Tea Lovers
Michele LillieWhat do you get for that special person in your life who loves all things tea? There are so many wonderful gifts at English Tealeaves, whether the person is a tea novice or a very experienced sipper. Please stop in and check them out.
A Curated Collection of Loose-Leaf Teas
With over 120 teas to choose from in all categories, from green to black to fruit to herbal to flavored to seasonal teas, there is something for everyone. If you do not know where to start in picking out a collection, our expert staff is eager to help you.
If you would rather not do the choosing, consider one of our wonderful Sampler Packs. We have nine sampler packs to choose from. All the included teas were carefully selected to represent the best of the respective category. Take a look.
At this time of year, our special Tea Advent Calendar might be just what you want, with a cozy collection of our holiday teas, packaged and wrapped to delight the recipient. Here’s a sneak peek.
Brewing Essentials
Brewing loose-leaf tea is simple, but you do need the proper equipment. A tea infuser to fit in a person’s cup or pot is a practical and thoughtful gift. With numerous styles and sizes, you are sure to find one that is perfect. Let one of our tea experts guide you through the different infusers so you feel confident in your choice.
Another option is a teapot or mug with its own included infuser and lid. From simple but pretty solid colors to a myriad of decorative patterns, it may be hard to buy just one.
Beautiful Teapots and Teapot Sets
Is your gift recipient into simplicity or a more modern look? Maybe they prefer the traditional teapot style in a floral or nature-inspired pattern. You might want to consider a Japanese cast-iron Tetsubin or Tetsukyusu, an English-style pot, or a glass piece that lets the beauty of the tea shine through. Check out this blog post for just how to pick out a great teapot.
Tea for Ones
This special gift of a Tea for One gives the recipient both a teapot and cup in a stylish, compact design. It is perfect for the tea drinker who doesn’t have much room to store both a teapot and cup.
Tea Subscription Box
If you find it hard to settle on a selection of teas, consider a Tea Subscription Box. The recipient will enjoy the thrill of receiving specialty teas delivered to their doorstep regularly! Our subscriptions may be for just a single tea or multiple teas delivered monthly or every two, three, or six months. Our Seasonal Tea Sampler is an exciting and fun gift that provides a selection of our seasonal teas numerous times during the year, allowing the recipient to taste them in the comfort of their home.
Travel Mug
If your recipient is always on the go, they may love the convenience of a Travel Mug with an included infuser. Whether they want to brew hot or iced tea, these mugs in multiple styles may be the perfect gift.
Tea Storage Containers
Tea canisters are a practical and stylish option. These airtight containers keep the recipient’s tea fresh, but can also add a touch of elegance. From stylish metallic colors to gorgeous Asian designs, there is plenty from which to choose.
Tea Pet
A cute and meaningful Tea Pet is a gift that the recipient can use to enhance their tea drinking experience or just enjoy the companionship they bring. See this blog post for the story of tea pets.
Gift Certificate to English Tealeaves
A Gift Certificate to English Tealeaves offers the ultimate freedom when in doubt. It allows recipients to pick out their dream teas or accessories, making it a fail-safe yet thoughtful gift. Gift certificates may also be used at our Afternoon Tea Parties or Tea Tasting and Pairing events.
