Festive Gifting for Every Personality: Your LMC tea guide

November 27, 2025

The festive season has a way of bringing everyone to the table. The early riser who loves quiet mornings, the friend who fills her home with people, the chocoholic aunt, the colleague who lives at the gym, the granny who still believes in a proper tea tray. Finding a gift that feels “just right” for each of them can feel like a lot.

This is where rooibos becomes your secret helper. LMC grew from a family rooibos farm in the Citrusdal valley at the foothills of the Cederberg Mountains, with blends that celebrate simple, beautiful moments shared over a cup of tea.

Below is a guide to match every personality with a rooibos blend and gifting option from the LMC collection.

For the Calm Homebody

She loves slow mornings, soft throws, and quiet evenings at home. Her festive season is more about candles and slippers than big nights out.

Gift her:

Wrap the tea box and LMC Lemon Tin together with a simple ribbon and a note inviting her to “switch off early tonight.”

For the Social Host

You know that friend who never lets anyone leave hungry and always “just throws something together” that looks like a magazine spread. She loves variety and plenty to share.

Gift her:

  • The LMC Rooibos Collection Gift Box with four blends: Lemon, Chamomile & Lavender Rooibos, Earl Grey Rooibos, Ginger & Lemongrass Rooibos, and Pear & Elderflower Rooibos. With 4 x 20 pyramid teabags, it is perfect for a tea station at her next gathering.
  • Or the LMC Rooibos Envelope Gift Box, which includes six blends in pretty envelopes: Pure Rooibos, Ginger & Lemongrass Rooibos, Pear & Elderflower Rooibos, Lemon, Chamomile & Lavender Rooibos, Lemon, Chamomile & Lavender Rooibos, and Earl Grey Rooibos. This box is ideal if she loves hosting book clubs, baby showers, or afternoon teas, as guests can choose their own envelope.

Add a little card suggesting a “festive tea tasting” at her next get-together.

For the Wellness Friend on the Move

Her diary is complete, her trainers live by the door, and she is always on the lookout for small, healthy rituals that fit into a busy week.

Gift her:

  • LMC Ginger & Lemongrass Rooibos, a refreshing blend with moringa, ginger, and lemongrass, perfect for a mid-morning lift and naturally caffeine-free.
  • LMC Pure Rooibos, an organic blend rich in antioxidants, with a smooth, slightly sweet taste that she can drink all day, hot or as an iced tea after a workout.
  • Add a pack of LMC Assorted Tea Envelopes for her handbag, office drawer, or gym bag. Single teabags in envelopes are practical for those in between moments where she wants a quick, comforting cup.

Tie the envelopes with a ribbon and suggest keeping a few in her car for those long holiday drives.

For the Dessert and Colour Lover

This is the person who always says yes to dessert and believes tea time should feel a little indulgent, even on a Tuesday. She loves flavour, colour and that sense of “treat” in her cup.

Gift her:

You could even include a simple recipe card for iced rooibos with fruit and mint for lazy summer afternoons.

For the Classic Tea Lover

This person appreciates quality and likes to keep things simple. No fuss, just a really good cup of tea.

Gift them:

  • LMC Pure Rooibos, carefully selected fine-cut organic rooibos with a full aroma and a smooth, sweet taste.

A handwritten note about the rooibos growing in the Cederberg, in the only region in the world where this plant naturally grows, turns it into a story they can share at their next tea break.

Bringing It All Together

Festive gifting does not have to be expensive or complicated. A box of rooibos, a reusable tin and a thoughtful note can say, “I see you, I know what you like, and I want you to have more small moments for yourself.”

You might be spoiling a homebody, a host, a wellness enthusiast, a dessert lover or a classic tea traditionalist. There is an LMC blend and gifting option that will feel personal and heartfelt. In the middle of year-end deadlines, family visits and long summer days, a quiet cup of tea might be the most appreciated gift of all.
