Start Your Gift Order With the Occasion and Quantity
Send through the basics on our enquiry form so we can match the right pack size, flavour mix and timing. Tell us what the gifts are for, how many you need, where they are going and whether you want a calm, classic tea selection or something more festive with rooibos and herbal infusions. That first note helps us quote properly and avoid delays.
If you are ordering for a team in Stellenbosch, a client list in Johannesburg or a wedding in Somerset West, it helps to share a final headcount plus a few spares. For larger gift runs, we can advise on packaging that suits courier handling and local handover. In warmer coastal areas and during summer heat, we also look at product choice and packing so the goods travel well.
- Occasion: corporate, wedding, birthday, year-end or thank-you gifts
- Quantity: exact number needed plus any extras for last-minute additions
- Delivery points: single address or multiple addresses
- Preferred tea profile: rooibos, black tea, green tea or herbal infusion
Choose Tea Selections That Suit the People Receiving Them
Gift orders work best when the tea matches the people receiving it. Some groups prefer familiar rooibos, while others enjoy lighter herbal blends or a mixed selection for variety. If you are not sure, we can help you decide based on age group, time of day, season and whether the gifts are for home use or office enjoyment.
For hospitality clients, we often suggest a balanced mix that works across different tastes. For weddings and personal celebrations, a more curated blend can feel thoughtful without being complicated. If you need a tea range for guests with caffeine-free preferences, say so up front and we will steer the order accordingly. It saves time and it keeps the gift practical.
- Rooibos blends for a familiar South African favourite
- Herbal infusions for caffeine-free gifting
- Loose-leaf teas for recipients who enjoy a fuller brew
- Mixed gift sets for varied taste preferences
Add Personalised Notes Without Slowing the Order
Personalised notes are a simple way to make gift orders feel considered. You can send one message for all recipients, or different notes for separate groups if the order is split by department, family branch or event table. Keep the wording short and clear, especially if names need to be included.
If you are ordering for corporate gifting, we can help keep the message professional. For weddings or family events, the note can be warmer and more personal. If you want a printed message card included with each pack, mention that from the start so we can plan the layout and quantities. Small details matter, and it is easier to set them up early than to fix them at the last minute.
- One shared message for all gifts
- Individual notes for named recipients
- Short thank-you cards for clients or staff
- Event wording for weddings, anniversaries and special milestones
Packaging Options for Presentation and Safe Courier Delivery
We offer packaging choices that suit different budgets and presentation needs. Some clients want a neat, simple finish for office gifting, while others need something more polished for events or premium client packs. If you have a theme colour, label wording or a specific unboxing style in mind, mention it when you enquire.
For courier orders, packaging also needs to hold up in transit. That means proper sealing, sensible packing volumes and a finish that keeps the tea clean and presentable when it arrives. This matters even more for deliveries to Cape Town, Durban and other routes where parcels may travel through heat, humidity or long transfer chains. We pack with that in mind, so the gift lands in good condition and ready to hand over.
- Simple gift packaging for practical bulk orders
- Presentation packs for premium gifting
- Protective outer packing for courier transport
- Labelled sets for easy sorting on arrival
How Bulk Gift Orders Are Packed and Sent
Once the order is confirmed, we prepare the teas, notes and packaging in the right sequence so nothing gets missed. If your gift order has multiple destinations, we separate and label each batch carefully before handover. That keeps the process tidy and reduces errors, especially when the order is for staff across more than one office or for a wedding with several delivery points.
Courier delivery is available across South Africa, including Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban and Bloemfontein. If you are working to a date tied to a launch, event setup or year-end function, give us as much lead time as you can. During load-shedding periods or peak courier weeks, extra planning helps. For larger orders, we will confirm packing and dispatch timing clearly so you know what is happening and when.
- Order confirmed and checked against recipient details
- Tea packs and notes prepared in batches
- Packaging and labels applied for each destination
- Courier handover arranged once the order is ready
When to Order for Weddings, Events and Seasonal Gifts
For smaller gift packs, a few working days may be enough depending on the quantities and the packaging requested. For weddings, year-end gifts and corporate campaigns, it is better to plan earlier so there is time for notes, labelling and any special packing requests. Seasonal periods can fill up quickly, especially when businesses are closing off the year or event dates land close together.
If your order is for a venue in Stellenbosch, Paarl or Somerset West, local handover can sometimes be arranged faster than a wider courier route. For national gifts, allow extra time for transport and sorting. We would rather build in a sensible buffer than rush the order and compromise the finish. If you are unsure about timing, ask early and we will guide you on the safest lead time.
- Small gift runs: allow a few working days
- Weddings and events: book well ahead
- Corporate year-end gifts: plan early to avoid courier bottlenecks
- National deliveries: add time for transport and sorting
