Nordic Christmas traditions are rooted in the pagan celebrations of winter solstice. Marking the time of the shortest day and the longest night of the year in the Northern hemisphere, it symbolizes the battle between darkness and light, bringing hope as light rises above darkness and the days become longer.

With so much turmoil in the world and the year drawing to the end, there is an even greater need for peace and light in our lives. We invite you to pause and take a moment to reflect on the year gone by with a cup of herbal goodness in hand.

This year our Treasure Chest: Nordic Christmas is curated exclusively of organic and 100% herbal teas, focusing on wellbeing and mindfulness. We have included 5 different teas, 3 of which were sourced exclusively for this Treasure Chest and come in a full size, as well as a beautiful gift from Ziemeļmeita from Latvia.
