Tea Sampler Gift Box

If you found your way here, it was either by going down a tea search rabbit hole or you purchased one of our tea advent calendar boxes (which we also just call our Tea Sampler Box since it's year round if you want a sample box to try yourself or gift someone).

In our box you'll find 25 tea samples that are a variety of custom herbal blends that we create ourselves in the shop such as Belly Bloat, some Korean style teas, and some fun seasonal teas like Blackberry Sage Oolong Tea. #25 will always be a seasonal tea that rotates. You'll also get a strainer cup that we prefer over those strainer balls that make a mess in your cup, and a tin of pure rock sugar in case you want to sweeten your teas (although we don't think they need them!) If you're joining us for the advent calendar release, every day we'll release what the tea of the day is here and add on each day with some information. We'll also be doing a video each day talking about the benefits that you can find on our instagram. If you want to know what all of the teas are and they aren't posted yet, you can click here to get a cheat sheet. We sincerely hope you enjoy our curated teas and get a sense of what we offer at our shop. Each box is handcrafted with seasonal picks, hand blended teas from the shop, and many are our own blends that we sell regularly at the shop. We source from local regenerative farms, small Korean regenerative farms, small global ethical farms, and an organic distributor for some of our herbs. Enjoy!

Day 1: Belly Boat (Caffeine Free/AM or PM)

This is one of our and our customer's favorites for a reason. Chamomile, Peppermint, Fennel and Persimmon leaf come together to create a flavorful herbal tea that also helps with inflammation, supports digestion, relieves bloating, is full of vitamins and minerals, and high in vitamin C which gives your immune system a bit of a boost. This is a great tea in the morning to set your day, after a meal, or in the evening before bedtime to help support digestion and bloating, while also relaxing the body before sleep mode. Great for children with digestive upset or trouble getting ready for bed. I steep around 5-7 minutes to get full benefits. The longer the steep, the more digestive properties you'll infuse.

Day 2: Herbal Hydration (Caffeine Free/AM or PM)

This is also top 3, you all are really getting some of the favorites up front. This is our upgrade to a vitamin water. There are so many studies on the benefits of lotus leaf tea, persimmon leaf, and even Korean Hydrangea. High in vitamin C, vitamins, minerals and has antiviral properties against influenza A, supports digestion and helps with weight management, it’s diabetic friendly. Korean Hydrangea is a natural sweetener similar to Stevia but tastes way better and with no processing (do not confuse this with American hydrangea as those are toxic). Liver and kidney supportive. This one is going to be hydrating to the skin as well, there are studies on the effects of Korean Hydrangea on reducing visible wrinkles, improves elasticity and texture. High in antioxidants, the list goes on. This is a perfectly hydrating drink after a cold or a long day, after a workout, if you just can’t stand water or the cold and dry winters of Colorado.

Day 3: Vanilla Rooibos Chai (Caffeine Free/AM or PM)

This is an herbal chai with rooibos as the base, which is a South African red bush tea that is super high in antioxidants. We use rooibos in a lot of blends because it really helps with inflammation and oxidative damage. This is for our sweet chai lovers that want a little spice like cloves and cinnamon but without the caffeine. You can add milk or even little sweetener to this one, but it honestly tastes pretty good on its own. Sometimes you think you’re just drinking tea, but there are so many benefits that can taste enjoyable also!

Day 4: Elderberry Tea Caffeine Free/AM or PM

This is a favorite at our markets when we do sample tastings. This particular elderberry tea also has throat and gut soothing properties, helps fight colds, eases congestion or a dry cough and boosts the immune system with its vitamin C content, immune modulating properties and high antioxidants. This is one of our go to teas for cold season, but it also just tastes really great with natural sweetness from licorice root and a warming ginger taste with elderberries.

Day 5: Spiced Blood Orange Caffeine Free/AM or PM

This might be the tea of the season. We recently did an iced spiced blood orange tea with yuzu honey and it was ridiculously good with an added boost of vitamin c to help your immune system. With spices like cardamom this one is an overall helpful digestive tea that tastes absolutely amazing. Citrus, spice, and all the flavors you love. 

Day 6: Korean Green Tea (Caffeine): I could talk to you about Korean green tea all day, but this particular green tea has a story: I flew to Jeju Island in Korea and visited a small organic farm, not the big one everyone knows. I did tastings, walked through the fields, and genuinely fell in love with this tea.

It's fresher, grassier, light, and mild. Because Jeju doesn't get as much sun as other tea-growing regions and isn't as tropical, there's less bitterness and astringency.

All of our Korean teas are limited because I can only offer what I bring back, they aren't exporting, and honestly, many Korean farms won't.

Green tea is high in antioxidants and has been used traditionally in Korea to relieve stomach bloating and pain, and may have the ability to inhibit the stomach flu.
