The dark half of the year is when kitchen witches are at their most powerful, and I promise you this: gift a culinary practitioner Maple Houjicha and they will be the happiest caster in the coven!  This green tea is warming, cozy, and has myriad applications for brewing and cooking. Pair this selection with printouts of any of the internet's many many houjicha recipes!
Not only is Memory Booster a delicious herbaceous delight, it's also our number one recommendation for grad students, frazzled parents, and my fellow indie business owners.  Packed with cognition-boosting botanicals, anyone whose brain needs extra support (so basically all of us these days?) will be grateful for the acuity assistance!
No one gets more spoiled around the holidays than our beloved sweet tooth buddies! While we have a wide range of dessert tea options, my personal pick this year is the classic Chocolate Cherry!   Luxurious and juicy-creamy with equal appeal taken black or with cream & sugar. Always a hit, even for our gluten free, nut free, vegan friends!We love our big-hearted buddies! For your friends who love a treat that gives back, our line of ChariTeas offers many beautiful options.  This year, we're highlighting our Harvest of SolidariTea, an almond-and-olive orchard homage to Palestine's lush culinary and cultural history.   $3 per ounce is donated to Care for Gaza!Here in the PNW, it's mushroom season and our autumn foliage is heckin resplendent. Soon, every neighborhood will be decked out in twinkly lights and gorgeous garlands.   Even in the cool fall & winter weather, treat your favorite traveler to a  taste of the great outdoors with Northwest Rainforest!For the globetrotting gourmet, a tea that transports is just the ticket! Help them travel to mythic China and beyond this year with the bold and complex Monkey King's Journey!  Layered flavors of citrus and smoke, silk and spice all combine to immerse and satisfy your loved one's wanderlust.Fall and winter belong to the literary. Whether your beloved is a reader, a writer, or both, help them break through a mid-season slump or abominable block with Writer's Fuel!  Smoke and peat and all things neat, this blend also suits whiskey drinkers beauTEAfully!The true heart of any social circle is the lovely with the tenderest soul. Tea is the language of vulnerability and empathy, and we've got our gentle friends covered with Strawberries & Cream!  Delicately sweet, smooth, and comes in a decaf variation for those evening heart-to-hearts. A gentle friend deserves a gentle cuppa!We all know and adore this friend: the gourmand. The tasting room regular, the food fest fanatic. For this friend, flavor is an adventure, not an afterthought!  Golden Snails are essentially sweet-potato and honey in tea form, complex and warming. This is a high-end culinary delight, and a favorite of our top-shelf clients!If all else fails, you always have a friend in gift cards! Digital or physical, five dollars or five hundred, these bad boys are your all-purpose BFF.   E-cards can be purchased online and used for anything and everything on our website, physical cards can be purchased in our Seattle tea house and used in-store and at conventions, gift shows, popups, etc!vine graphic
