Indie tea company Bird & Blend has launched a new advent calendar which features almost 50 tea bags and some rather unusual flavours (I’m curious, what do you imagine a “Fairytale of NY” tea to taste like?), as well as classic Christmas blends.

Open a door each day for a tea-surprise and follow the daily tea routine on the reverse, which invites you to pause, re-balance and create a calming space for your mind this December.
