The lineup is properly good rather than nine variations on the same thing: Salted Caramel, Peppermint Mocha, Caramel, Toasted Marshmallow, Snickerdoodle, Chocolate Cherry, French Vanilla and a couple more.
Each sachet makes a single mug with hot water or milk, so there’s no measuring or mess, and the variety means they get to work through them rather than finishing the box in one weekend.
It comes in a gift box finished with a burlap ribbon, which looks considerably more expensive than the price suggests and removes any wrapping from your to-do list.
That matters for office gifts in particular, where everything gets opened in front of everyone and the packaging is doing as much work as the contents.
It also travels well, so you can take it to a gathering or post it without it arriving looking battered, which is more than can be said for most food gifts.
That’s what makes it such a reliable Kris Kringle pick. You don’t need to know anything about the recipient beyond the fact that they’re a person who drinks hot drinks.
It’s ideal for the colleague who’s always in the kitchen making a cuppa, and it works as a cosy winter gift or a small thank you.
If you want to lift it a level without much effort, pair it with a decent mug. The two together look like a properly considered present rather than a box of sachets, for maybe twenty dollars more.
