The Piper & Leaf’s 24 Teas of Advent Calendar has been created by the brand as a pre-holiday gift for tea aficionados to help them enjoy the premium teas from the Alabama-based brand this season. The calendar was developed this year after the brand hit 24 teas in its product range to ensure there was enough varieties to achieve the countdown-style calendar.
The calendar has a library-style packaging that sees each of the books inside revealing a different tea upon being opened for a surprise and delight experience that's perfect for avid fans of tea. The individual book tea packaging also features holiday activities like crafts and recipes alongside a song, poem or story.
The Piper & Leaf’s 24 Teas of Advent Calendar is available now directly from the brand.
