These tea box sets come together to form a collection that seeks to "revolutionize the experience of one of the oldest drinks in history," and it does so by offering a [contemporary brand identity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tealeaves-x-pantone) to go along with the classic nature of the tea itself.

The Teabox brand's visual identity was designed by the creative agency [Pentagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/best-blnz). The sets vary in color, but what they all have in common is a subtle, minimalist design. Each tea box set contains a symbol that represents the tea that makes up its contents, including black, green, white, oolong, [chai](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/masala-chai-blends) and a box that contains a variety.

This brand offers a contemporary design and fuses it with the history of the teas it offers, thereby standing out in a booming market.
