Signe Lindholm
Senior reviewer, herbal and gifting · Copenhagen, Denmark
Signe lives in Copenhagen and drinks more herbal tea than coffee, which in Denmark is saying something. She reviews the caffeine-free, organic and matcha calendars on The Tea Countdown and writes our gifting guides.
Her question for every calendar is a simple one: would the person opening it on day 14 still be pleased? She cares about the small moment each morning, the pleasure of a new door, and whether the box looks like a celebration under the tree.
How Signe tests a calendar
- Opens every calendar she reviews day by day, in order, the way the person receiving it would.
- Brews each tea at the maker's recommended temperature and steeping time.
- Notes the days she would happily skip, and the ones she would buy again as a full box.
- Judges the unboxing and presentation as a gift, not only the tea inside.
