Tea Drunk: The Perfect Gift For Corporate Gifting

Specialty Food Association

Your team and clients deserve the best, just like you.

Finding unique and meaningful ways to say thank you to your employees, VIPS, and partners can be difficult each holiday season. As the producers of the world’s most prized teas, Tea Drunk is ready to make those decisions easy for you this year! Giving the gift of tea shows warmth, provides the recipient with something to engage with that will lead to a stronger emotional response and memory of your gift and introduces them to a world of knowledge to explore on their own.

Tea is the wine of the East. And Tea Drunk provides access to the Grand Cru of tea in the West. Tea Drunk, a Certified Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprise in New York City, founded by Shunan Teng, is a producer and distributor of the rarest and most exquisite loose leaf teas sourced directly from China’s top terroir. Just like not all sparkling wines are Champagne, not all fine teas are created equal. Tea Drunk brings only the very best for tea connoisseurs with a discerning palate. This caliber of tea is highly sought after and respected globally, making it a perfect gift to show appreciation to your most prestigious partners and clients.

Top terroir, ancient heirloom tea trees, and masterful tea-making is the trinity of Tea Drunk’s loose leaf teas. It is crucial to Teng that Tea Drunk only sells tea that meets the rigorous criteria of all three to preserve a 2000+-year-old history of artisanship.

We have some great ideas for how you can integrate tea into your corporate gifting this year:

Gift employees, VIPS, partners a Holiday Tea Sampler (Classic or Reserve Selections)

- Host a private tea tasting at your office or client’s location

- Gift educational materials from The Tea Drunk Academy to foster deeper learning in your team and community, like our renowned Brewing Class

- Host a virtual Guided Tasting for your remote team or distant clients

We have experience working with luxury businesses and top executives and are prepared to curate the experience to suit the special needs of your team and clientele. Our event offerings allow your team to spend quality time together while building their knowledge base of tea and tea culture. Multi-sensory experiences are shown in studies to increase connectivity and comfort between individuals, increasing efficiency and team unity.  Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us to arrange a call to discuss further.
