Tea Essentials Gift Box

I’m a tea drinker, and I have a lot of rules about my favorite hot drink. One: my tea has to be made with scalding-hot water. Two: it must steep for several minutes. Three: it has to taste like something.  Do these rules seem too obvious? Actually, it’s hard to find a good cup of tea if you don’t make it yourself: the water is never hot enough, the teabag either comes out too soon or stews in the pot, and the resulting beverage tastes like luke-warm city water.  I usually drink coffee when I’m out.

When I’m home it’s another story. I love brewing a cup of flavorful loose-leaf tea, making it just the way I like it. Vermont Tea and Trading Company blends premium-quality teas with natural flavorings to create deeply satisfying varieties of tea. In the Tea Essentials box we include three of our favorites: English Breakfast, a robust Assam black tea to start your day; Moroccan Mint, a refreshing green tea blended with Oregon spearmint; and Vermont Maple Spice, a riff on Chai, made with black tea, maple sugar, nutmeg and ginger, the perfect afternoon cup to enjoy after a day spent in the snow.

We’ve also included a bag of famous Effie's Oatcakes to nosh on, a jar of Stony Point Apiaries Honey, to stir into your tea, and a Finum brewing filter, to brew your loose-leaf tea with ease. All you need is scalding water (bring it to a boil, then let it sit a few seconds before pouring over your tea), a favorite mug, and a few minutes of your time.
