Choosing Coffee and Tea as a Gift

over 1 year ago (Edited)

Hi hivers and fellow members of this coffee community.
I hope your week is going great.

I recently went to a variety store to
pick up coffee and tea as a little gift for my friend. We had planned on meeting the following day.
I wasn’t sure which ones to get for her especially because I wasn’t familiar with the brands that were available. I however thought they had an interesting collection of coffee and teas. I finally settled on two packages(coffee and tea) but making
the decisions took longer than I thought it would have.

Milk Coffee

Honey Coffee
It was my first time seeing “INIC” coffee. I thought about getting the one with honey but later exchanged it for a different type.
I continued looking around and saw some “Peanuts” coffee. I looked more closely at the original blend, decaf and milk coffee then went to another coffee section.

Original Blend

Milk coffee

Decaf coffee

Charcoal Coffee Diet

Though I had no intention of getting it, charcoal coffee piqued my interest because it was my first time to see it and it reminded me that I needed to go on a diet. Haha! I have so much to learn about coffee itself. Do you know of charcoal coffee? Have you ever tried a charcoal coffee diet? I wonder how exactly it works as it relates to dieting. Hmm…

After heading to the tea section I realized that still there was a small collection of coffee next to and below the teas.

Sweet vanilla coffee

Hazelnut coffee, sweet vanilla coffee and cranberry coffee. I decided on one of these for my friend. I hope she enjoys it.

Honey milk tea.
There were a few types of tea from the same brand. I also got one for my friend. It carried about 5 teabags.

Assorted black fruit tea (32 teabags)

Assorted black and green teas (32 bags)

There were some lovely packages of teas carrying 32 teabags. I thought they were a great collection and nothing like I’d seen in other shops.
Selecting my fiends gifts took a while but the process was fun.

Thank you for reading my post and have a fantastic weekend. 🎶😃

Wow, that was a wide selection I can see why you were confused. But honestly, they all look so good that you could not have gone wrong.
Both the coffee and tea selections look amazing:)))

😃An interesting and wide selection indeed. I don’t see those types/ brands anywhere else so that really made me look around. The funny thing is , it’s almost in a very local area. I’d expect to find such variety in bigger and more popular areas of the
city. Kudos on their collection and variety. Have a lovely day.🎶

I've never heard of charcoal coffee before. It sounds somewhat strange, like some of the health and diet fads out there.

"Hey, we've added some burnt wood to your coffee because of...erm...well...health and diet reasons...yeah that's it! Enjoy."

Meanwhile they are just trying to sell off their product that was partially burnt and ruined because of a forest fire that destroyed part of their crop last year...

😆 Not saying that was the case, that's just where my mind goes. Sounds a lot like our last Spill The Beans prompt actually 🤔

Neither had I. It does sound strange and like a fad. It did raise my brows and probably gave me a few wrinkles to the forehead as I questioned it. Lol!

"Hey, we've added some burnt wood to your coffee because of...erm...well...health and diet reasons...yeah that's it! Enjoy."

😆Always good to just throw in health and "diet" eh. I’m not sure about the strength of my coffee-burnt wood instincts but something about it felt “off”. Lol
Maybe if there were testimonials? Then again, those would have created more suspicion. Lol!

Meanwhile they are just trying to sell off their product that was partially burnt and ruined because of a forest fire that destroyed part of their crop last year...

😂😆 If this is the case, I’d give them points for creativity. Lol.

I think that like you I would have taken too long to choose from such a variety, besides that here they do not sell those brands of coffee and tea I would have wanted one of each, especially those "Peanuts" beauties, just to keep the images, I hope you enjoyed what you chose for you and that your friend also enjoyed what you brought him.

😃Good to know you’d have stayed as long. Hehe!
It was interesting to see “new” or different brands of coffee and teas. I have a feeling I might re-visit. I did enjoy a lovely cup of tea from the purchase. Hoping my friend is enjoying hers as well. Muchas gracias. Have a lovely weekend. 🎶

Wow, I see lots that I want to try from the selections of coffee and tea that you shared. How I wish we have these brands too. LOL! Thank you for sharing these. This gives me an idea to search for it from the online shopping app I use. They may have something similar. Enjoy your weekend! :)
