Top 5 Coffee Gifts
1) Ecuadorian Coffee
Café Galletti: Ecuadorian Coffee Beans - Women's Coffee
2) Reusable Silicone Straws
Sip away with reusable silicone straws made to help protect your smile. Drinking through a KoffieStraw side steps stains from things like coffee and tea. The BPA-free straws have an oval shape that fits into to-go cups and travel mugs and keeps the flow of hot or cold drinks to the just-right amount. The flexible straws can even be cut to suit your favorite glass, mug, or cup. Set includes a 7” straw, a 10” straw, and a cleaning brush.
3) Reusable Hot Coffee/Tea Filters
These reusable filters are the perfect alternative to disposable filters and nylon sacks. Crafted with 100% GOTS certified organic cotton to create a tasty brew without impacting its flavor. After each use, simply empty the grounds, rinse the filter, and hang to dry. Each filter's durable fabric will last over a year with continuous use. Made in the USA.
4) Blooming Tea Flowers - Set of Two
Tea time can be a mesmerizing ritual with these blooming tea flowers. Each flower opens and grows as it steeps, releasing fragrance and flavor into your brew. These two sets of four beautifully-wrapped blooming teas come in a collectible glass tube with a wooden cork. Each flower is good for about three infusions. Serve in a glass tea pot to really enjoy the aesthetics.
5) Precision Manual Coffee Grinder
Grind it just how you like it. This ceramic burr coffee grinder helps you get the just-right coarseness of ground coffee, depending on your coffee maker (and taste). There are 15 grind settings and it’s made from stainless steel with a ceramic burr that won’t dull or rust over time.
