Whittard of Chelsea Tea Advent Calendar comes in a beyond beautiful art deco style box. This makes it beautiful to display in your kitchen, and it’s good enough quality to reuse next year if you want.
I also like the box because it’s festive without being overly Christmas (coming from someone who doesn’t celebrate the holiday, I feel like I can still take part in this tradition with this box!).
The tea is a lovely mix of holiday favourites and classics, both caffeinated and herbal blends. They give you 4 tea bags a day – perfect for sharing!

It’s no surprise that I would love this tea Advent Calendar from DavidsTea, combining both my passions: tea and travel!
That’s right! You can travel the world through tea every day leading up to Christmas this year!
With two servings for everyday of Certified Organic & vegan teas. There are both caffeinated and herbal teas in the mix!
6. Pukka Healthy Tea Lover Advent Calendar
If you love herbal tea blends Pukka has you covered with every herbal blend imaginable this Christmas. Although it’s 90% herbal it does contain some healthy blends with green tea.
Behind every door you’ll find a tea bag of enough for 1 brew. But if you want to enjoy with your loved one it’s very budget friendly to get a second tea advent calendar (see prices here).

Pukka Tea also releases a Christmas Advent calendar with solely herbal tea blends.
7. T2Tea Loose Leaf & Tea Bag Options
Every year I absolutely love T2Teas advent calendar; they’re full of joy and not all about Christmas. This year their theme is The Tea Lover’s 24 Day Fabulous Feast and the art is SPECTACULAR (see it here)!
If the box alone doesn’t bring a smile to your face, then I don’t know what will!
Plus T2Tea blends are perfect to cozy up with as the days get colder. They have such whimsical blends like Strawberries & Cream and Morning Sunshine but also the classics like French Earl Grey (my absolute favourite!)!

8. Vahdam Spiced Addict Advent Calendar
If spicy teas are your winter jam, then a Vahdam Holiday Tea Calendar is the one to buy.
I swear it’s filled with more spices and Chai tea blends than you can even imagine (even creating a spiced Earl Grey – check it out in Canada here) It’s also the largest advent calendar on the list, giving you 5 tea bags every day!
This is also the only calendar to include turmeric tea blends.
The large version isn’t available on Amazon.com (yet) but you can still buy Vahdam’s mini advent calendar here. It comes with all the same blends but only 1 tea bag instead of 5.
9. Budget Friendly Option The English Tea Shop
Advent calendars can get a bit out of control these days with prices getting higher and higher.
To take part in this tradition, without breaking the bank, The English Tea Shop is a wonderful tea brand that sells a very reasonably priced tea Advent calendar.
There is a catch though, it’s 25 days of tea, but every tea is doubled!
The box is a simple, but I love the artwork – it brings you to a winter wonderland scene!
You can choose between two designs: a book style that you have to open up, or one without a cover.
10. Kusmi Non-Spiced Organic Tea Calendar!
With a nice mix of herbal and caffeinated tea blends Kusmi Holiday Advent Calendar is all organic tea.
But! What I love the most about this calendar is that it has the least spiced tea blends.
If you aren’t a fan of chai or most spiced winter blends (like me!), then this is Advent calendar is the one for you!
It also comes with two miniature tea tins and an infuser.

BONUS TEA ADVENT CALENDAR!
Fortnum & Mason: Most Extravagant Advent Calendar Of Tea
If you want to go all out this holiday season, there’s no better tea Advent calendar than Fortnum’s Tea Filled Wooden Advent Calendar!
Definitely the priciest Christmas calendar on the list, but it’s a showpiece on it’s own. It’s a beautiful (and reusable) wooden box.
If you aren’t a fan of herbal infusions either, this is also the box for you with the least amount of caffeine-free teas.
It’s all about black and green tea blends in this box!
They do sell a Christmas Tea Lovers Advent Calendar at a more reasonable price and with more herbal blends.
I Hope They Bring It Back One Day…

If you love matcha, there was no better tea Advent calendar than DavidsTea 24 Days of Matcha.
You’ll be tasting everything from classic matcha to every matcha blend imaginable!
It also came with a DavidsTea Perfect Matcha Spoon.

Last year (2020) I tried my first tea advent calendar. I was lucky enough to get one from Tea Pigs. It was pure tea bliss for a month. After reading your article I think I just might have to try one of your suggestions 🤔. The Whittard of Chelsea Tea Advent Calendar might be the one. As I can get a hot chocolate one for my nieces too.

Ahhh is there anything better than pure tea bliss for an entire month!? It's the best time of the year! I've never tried the Tea Pigs one - I'll have to check it out now. I'm sure you and your nieces won't be disappointed with a hot chocolate every day for an entire month! I hope you like it!
