We introduce him to precious and renowned teas
Offering tea, what a great idea! It's a change from flowers, chocolates, it's less perishable, it would have beneficial effects on health, on stress... and the advantage for Kusmiis that they are all organic! For a gift that stands out, forget about everyday teas for a while, and select exceptional teas that take you on a journey.
We rely on the best teas in the world
Before offering a world tour (the day you win the lottery!), you can already offer a tea world tour ! Starting with China, the cradle of tea, where it has been cultivated and consumed since the third millennium BC. Among the most prestigious Chinese teas, we recommend the organic Long Jing tea (Dragon's Well) which is distinguished by its long flat emerald green leaves and its light notes of hazelnut and chestnut. Or theorganic tea Jade Pearls with Jasmine, made up of delicate little tea pearls, ready to be infused.
We then stopover in Japan with several famous green teas: Sencha organic green tea, nicknamed “hospitality tea”, the Genmaicha organic green tea, with toasted and puffed grains of rice, or the Hojicha organic green tea, coming from the island of Kyushu. But it is clearly the organic tea matcha which has become, in recent years, particularly trendy in pastry. We end the taste journey with a stopover in India, the country of chai, a very sweet milk tea loaded with spices. Without forgetting to stop in Morocco, where the traditional mint green tea has become THE symbol of hospitality.
Like what, a simple organic green tea as a gift can be an exotic gift.
We opt for a gift set gift
Having trouble choosing just one tea? We understand you! In order to allow discoveries, re-discoveries, the ideal is to offer a gift set gift. Especially since at Kusmi, they are not only a guarantee of quality, they respect the environment. All ingredients come fromorganic farming, all mixtures and packaging are carried out in France, while the packaging is eco-responsible.
Among our gift sets darling, there is the gift set The Moments (5 tea recipes to enjoy all day), the gift set The Essentials (5 miniatures of essential teas and infusions) or the gift set Tea Time (the “must-haves” of the afternoon tea break). The good news is that all gift sets gifts can have a second, third... tenth life, since there are refills to refill them.
Another option that will appeal to the most inspired: choose a gift set to personalize, which you compose yourself. Perfect, to take into account the tastes of the person to be spoiled…. or make him taste our favorite teas ! Do not hesitate at this point to slip in some white tea, much more unknown than green teas and black teas, and which appeals to the most demanding palates, thanks to its rare, subtle and delicate flavors.
We give him the perfect pot of tea
Lovers of tea (and its ancient ceremonial!) will enjoy teapot a must-have for a tea time worthy of the name. It’s THE perfect gift for someone who loves tea. It's up to us to find the one that is best suited to their style and consumption.
Traditional teapots that have proven themselves
We immediately think of the cast iron teapot Japanese called “Tetsubin Kyusu”. His strong point? The thermal advantage of cast iron which retains heat perfectly, and can be placed directly on the fire to heat the water. In China, these are terracotta teapots of Yixing, which are particularly famous. Their specificity is that they are called “memory”. As the teapot is not enameled, the tannin from the tea is lightly deposited on the walls, subsequently restoring the taste. “Patinated” for years, some are sold for a high price! The disadvantage is that you can only brew one type of tea in it, to avoid risky mixtures. On a daily basis, a porcelain teapot or ceramic (enameled materials), will be much easier to use (and reuse!).
Modern teapots for design fans
If tradition is good, innovation can also appeal to tea lovers. What a joy early in the morning to say that the automatic teapot takes care of everything! Equipped with different programs, this tea machine heats, brews all varieties of tea, signals when the tea is ready, before keeping it warm. The other option, even more stylish, is the glass teapot whose refined, Scandinavian-inspired look we love. It plays on transparency, gradually letting the color of the tea appear. Ideal for monitoring the infusion.
We equip it with professional accessories
If the person to be spoiled already has a teapot and a good stock of teas, we can go for gifts, still related to tea, but a little more original. Better, if you are very generous, or the occasion justifies it, you can put together a personalized kit, including a teapot, tea, as well as accessories. We'll tell you a little more about these below.
Offer the perfect kettle
Let's start with the kettle, which has become, for many of us, the first step in the preparation of tea or an infusion. Everyday objects, designers and major brandshousehold appliances took hold of it. Our current favorites? the KitchenAid Classic kettle, round and space-saving, or the Stelton Emma kettle, which is inspired by the old-fashioned enamel coffee pot.
Small tea accessories to offer
Preparing tea is quite easy and fun (when you're well equipped!), but drinking it is even better. You can choose to favor the tasting experience by selecting a cup or mug, particularly worked. We love, for example, this stoneware teapot with its wooden lid, as pretty in a kitchen as in an office. If you opt for a “classic” cup or mug, you can add a tea ball, a spoon infuser or a permanent tea filter.
Accessories for the iced tea
As summer is never far away, and iced tea lovers are more and more numerous, we can also decide to offer a iced tea carafe, specially designed for the preparation of the flagship summer drink, detox and refreshing. And because it is always pleasant to take your tea with you, on the way to work, on weekends or on a trip, you can decide for one insulated bottle, like this very design glass bottle, which will keep your drinks hot or cold for several hours.
