Overview
A storybook-shaped box, hand-illustrated, built to stay on display through December and carrying all of T2's colourful Australian energy. Each door reveals a single tea bag from the brand's signature bold blacks, refreshing greens, sweet fruit infusions and soothing herbals, with magical notes and wishes tucked among the doors. On price it sits between budget supermarket calendars and premium loose-leaf formats.
Taste & variety
One bag per day across bold T2 blacks, refreshing greens, sweet fruit infusions, rooibos and herbals. The house style is bright and approachable. These are good daily drinkers with the occasional standout door.
