24 days, 24 different teas. Our first advent calendar holds a different Magic T tea for every day from 1 to 24 December, and it comes with a game. Smell each one, brew it, then write your guess on the guess sheet. The answers are sealed in an envelope, to open at the end or the moment curiosity wins.
Every pouch is whole leaf, hand blended in New Zealand with nothing added, and holds enough for two mugs. One for you, one for whoever's around. Brew it in the Wood Lid Glass Infuser Mug that comes in the box, which stays with you long after the last day.
Every calendar is packed by hand and sent within 7 days of your order. We make them in small batches, and once they're gone, that's it for this year.

Common questions
How does the advent calendar work?
Open day 1 on 1 December and a new day each morning until Christmas Eve. Each pouch holds enough tea for two mugs, brewed in the infuser mug that comes in the box.
There's a guess sheet in the box too. Smell it, brew it, then write down what you think each blend is. The answer sheet is sealed in an envelope, so you can check at the end or open it early if the suspense gets too much.
Which teas are inside?
There are 24 different Magic T teas, all whole leaf and hand blended in New Zealand with nothing added. We keep the list sealed in an envelope so you can guess your way through the month, and the answer sheet names the blend behind every number.
Seven days include green tea, which contains caffeine: days 2, 5, 9, 12, 14, 17 and 21. They're marked with a leaf on the answer sheet.
When will my advent calendar be sent?
Every calendar is packed by hand and sent within 7 days of your order.
Delivery then takes 1 to 2 business days within New Zealand and 5 to 8 business days to Australia. We'll send you a tracking link as soon as yours is on its way.
Does it come in a gift box and ready to gift?
Yes. The gift box is included, exactly as shown in the product images. It arrives ready to give with nothing further to add.
How many are available?
We're making 100, each one numbered. Once they're sold, there won't be more this year.
Can I drink this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
This product contains an herb that is generally advised against during pregnancy and breastfeeding, so we don't recommend it at those times. Persian Garden, Pure Damask Rose Buds, Pure Lemon Balm and Peach Perfection are gentle, caffeine free alternatives. Always check with your midwife or doctor before drinking herbal teas while expecting or nursing.

Wood Lid Glass Infuser Mug
Borosilicate Glass and Bamboo - 350 ml★ 4.9 (40 reviews)
The Wood Lid Glass Infuser Mug pairs a borosilicate glass body with a bamboo lid that holds in heat and aroma while the tea steeps. The clear glass lets you watch the colour build. Pour hot water over the leaves in the filter, lift the filter out when it's ready, and the lid becomes a rest for it.
