Gourmet tea and coffee ideas

I was hoping you could point me in the right direction.  I would like to get a gourmet tea and coffee gift for my grandparents, one likes coffee and one likes tea.  I was thinking some specialty teas and coffees, but don't know where to start.  Can you suggest any options or places I can look online?

Re: Gourmet tea and coffee ideas

  • Do you have a coffee/tea shop near you?  It's nice to be able to smell them and pick out flavors.  

    It's useful to know their basic preferences. 

    Like any good super hero, I'm using my alter ego to protect my identity. Goodbye Silver poster status!
  • No, I don't.  I should have specified that my Grandfather likes English tea.  My grandmother doesn't have any specific blend that she gets.
  • Try The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf for both tea and coffee options.  Teavana is another store specializing in teas.  They both have websites - hopefully you'll be able to find some gift ideas on there.

    Good luck!

    Thanks for the suggestion.  I have looked and there are some great options.  DH loves Kona coffee.  I bought him a bag from Starbucks recently and spent $22, which for us is a major splurge for how much you get, but he loved it.  I see the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf has some kona coffee for $49.95!  Wow!  I bet that is tasty (or at least it should be for the price)!

  • Mojito Marmalade is my favorite, it is available at most tea shops like teavana or teaforte. It is an herbal tea with a citrus taste to it, my favorite!
