The end of the year is a time when many occasions bring gifts. You want everyone to compliment you on your good taste! Our editorial team has carefully selected some perfect gifts for you.

When it comes to gifts, food and alcohol are the standard. I usually head to a friend's house with snacks and alcohol, but when I'm at a large party, I often leave the food and drink arrangements to others and opt for tea, which is less likely to be the same as what everyone else is having. It's perfect for tea time at the end of the party, or for the host to take a break after the guests have left, and it even lasts a long time! This time, I've picked out some classic teas and some teas I've recently become obsessed with.


Tick Tock Rooibos Earl Grey Tea, from the British manufacturer Tick Tock, is characterized by its pop blue box. It is an Earl Grey-flavored rooibos tea with added bergamot oil. The gorgeous aroma of bergamot spreads from the moment you open the box, and becomes even stronger when you pour hot water over it, making you feel like you're drinking Earl Grey tea. As it is caffeine-free, it is also a great gift for anyone, including those who can't tolerate caffeine or pregnant women.



I was attracted by the packaging of PEACE TEA FACTORY's "Black Tea Guevara," and contrary to its striking packaging, it is a healthy black tea produced in Shizuoka Prefecture, made using only organically grown tea leaves without any pesticides. It is made from "Yabukita," a popular Japanese tea leaf, and when you sip it, you can taste the gentle sweetness of the tea leaves, with little harshness, astringency, or distinctive flavor. It gives you a warm and cozy feeling, almost like you're drinking Japanese tea. Furthermore, the mild flavor, based on Japanese tea leaves, pairs perfectly with both Western and Japanese sweets. It also makes a great gift for the New Year holidays.
