Not every cup needs to be hot to matter.

Some of the best ones are the ones you almost forget you're drinking — until the glass is empty.

That's what you're actually giving.

WHAT'S INSIDE

Five pieces, ready to give

Everything needed to go from unopened box to a proper cold brew — plus a gift bag, so it's ready to hand over as-is.

Glass Teapot

Removable infuser — watch the leaves steep.

2-in-1 Tea Scoop

Measures the leaf, reseals the tin.

Stoneware Teacup

Hand-thrown, individually glazed.

2oz of Your Choice of Tea

Black, Green, or Oolong — you pick.

Gift Bag

Elegant packaging, ready to hand over.

HOW TO USE IT

Brew strong, pour over ice

Whichever tea you pick, bolder teas hold up best over ice — here's the method.
01

Brew double-strength

Use roughly twice the usual amount of leaf in the glass teapot.

02

Steep hot

Use your tea's normal temperature and time, steeped double-strength.

03

Cool it down

Let it come to room temperature, or pour straight over ice.

04

Serve in the teacup

Or any glass — the stoneware cup works for either hot or cold pours.

WHY THIS SET

Why give this instead of just a tin of tea?

1

Nothing else to buy

A tea gift alone assumes the person already owns the right equipment. This one doesn't assume anything.

2

Built for iced tea specifically

Brewed double-strength, any of the three tea choices hold their flavor well once poured over ice.

3

Genuinely discounted

The set is $44.99, marked down from its $59.99 list price — a real discount on top of getting the full kit together.

A LONGER STORY

Nepal's Tea, Older Than You'd Think

Nepal has been growing tea since 1863, when the Ilam Tea Estate was planted in the hills near the Indian border — legend has it the first tea bushes in the country came from seeds gifted by the Chinese Emperor to Nepal's Prime Minister a few years earlier. Gajraj Singh Thapa is the name credited with actually putting those first bushes in the ground.

For most of the century that followed, Nepali tea lived in Darjeeling's shadow. The two regions share nearly identical growing conditions — same altitude, same soil, same stretch of the Eastern Himalayas — but political isolation under Nepal's Rana dynasty kept the industry small while Darjeeling, developed under British colonial rule, built a global name for itself. A lot of Nepali tea historically ended up sold to Darjeeling processors under someone else's label.

That started to change after Nepal opened up to more investment in the mid-1900s, and picked up further once tea-growing zones were formally established in the early 1980s. In the decades since, Nepali orthodox tea has steadily grown in both output and quality — the same growing conditions that make Darjeeling famous, producing tea that most people outside Nepal have simply never had the chance to try.

That's the gap Himalco exists to close.

WHAT'S NATURALLY IN IT

A Few Things Tea Brings With It

Not a medical claim — just what's naturally present in the leaf.

Natural Antioxidants

Tea leaves naturally contain polyphenols and catechins, the same class of plant compounds found in berries and dark chocolate.

L-Theanine

An amino acid unique to tea, often associated with a calmer, more even kind of alertness than coffee alone.

Hydration

Brewed tea is over 99% water — a genuine way to add to your daily fluid intake, not just a caffeine delivery method.

A Built-In Pause

Steeping takes a few minutes by design — a small, repeatable moment to slow down before the next thing.
