Gift notification emails are sent to gift recipients when their initial sampler ships. You can include a personal note at checkout.

The initial shipment depends on your selection at checkout, so either a few days after you place your order, a few days after a specific ship date you choose, or the first week of next month. Following shipments arrive the first week of each month, or every third month for quarterly subscriptions. If the initial shipment arrives at the end of the month we push the 2nd shipment a month out to make sure there is enough time to submit tea ratings and preferences before the shipment is processed.

If you buy someone a caffeine free subscription they will receive a caffeine free sampler and caffeine free teas exclusively. If you buy a regular subscription they will get a regular sampler and may or may not get some caffeine free teas based on their tea ratings and preferences. 

When you buy a gift card you get an email with a link and a code to redeem it. You can share the email, the link, or just the code with the person you bought it for. They will then start their own subscription and apply the gift card at checkout. Most of our customers choose gift subscriptions instead of gift cards.
