Advent’s best calendars (2025): We opened each door

Vahdam India makes several different Advent calendars (this web page says 2024, although it is up -to -date). This gift box is my favorite. The packaging is sturdy, stable and festively decorated. Each of the 24 drawers contains five individually packed pieces of tea pyramid, so you get 120 tea bags in total (and it’s nice that the box is doubled as storage if you don’t have room for all these bags). Tea is perfectly dried and delicious. Steep bag for 200 milliliters of hot water for two to five minutes (each bag has specific instructions and cooking tips, including whether you should turn on or not milk and how to cook if you want to be treated) and you will soon have a wonderful, cozy glass of comfort.

My favorite so far is India’s original tea, which tastes, unlike any other tea I have ever had. It is rich, earthly, fragrant and fantastic. There are other unique scents that I eager to try, such as turmeric and hibiscus rose, in addition to some more common mixtures such as chamomile or Earl Gray Citrus. One percent of the company’s revenue is donated to a Teach Me, a program that helps to train the children of farmers in India. The products are also neutral in climate and plastic. Finally, unlike some other consumables Advent Calendars, this one expires in two years – so you have plenty of time to enjoy its contents. If you are a tea enthusiast or your gift enjoys a warm drink during the cold winter months, it’s a non-brain.
