Top 5 Foodie Favorites & Gourmet Food Gifts

Traditional Cajeta made in Vermont. All natural and available in four flavors: Original, Cinnamon, Coffee Bean and Vanilla Bean. Sold individually or gift boxed. Cinnamon Caramel
2) Cold Brew Tea Gift Set
Make your afternoon tea an iced one with a cold brew tea gift set. Cold brewing is a slow and gentle way to infuse tea that creates more intense flavors and aromas. This set has everything you need to brew your own at home, including organic and orthodox loose leaf teas. This means the tea is hand-picked and processed according to traditional practices and it is all sourced from small-scale, non-industrial tea farms. Brewing is easy—just steep the tea overnight in the container, strain, and enjoy.
3) Floral Lotus Tisane & Teapot
Transform the age-old ritual of making tea. These dried tea flowers are actual lotus buds sourced from a monastery on one of China’s holy mountains. Their golden honey aroma evolves into a subtle, more herbal taste and fragrance as you drink. This kit includes a beautiful glass teapot with a wire filter that lets you enjoy the aesthetics, and eight to twelve lotus flower tisanes (each good for up to two infusions).
