Wattleseed Breakfast Tea by The Rabbit Hole

A$24.00

Wattleseed Breakfast by The Rabbit Hole takes one of the most familiar teas in the world and quietly reinvents it. A robust black tea base — the kind that handles a splash of milk without flinching — is blended with wild-harvested Australian wattleseed and a soft note of Heilala vanilla.

Wattleseed has been a staple bush food for tens of thousands of years, ground and used by First Nations peoples long before coffee or chocolate arrived in Australia. It brings a deep, nutty, slightly toasted warmth — somewhere between roasted hazelnut and dark caramel — that turns a standard breakfast cup into something genuinely memorable.

Made by hand in Australia by The Rabbit Hole using premium ingredients you can actually see in the tin.

Tasting Notes:

  • Black tea — robust, full-bodied, milk-friendly

  • Wild-harvested wattleseed — nutty, toasted, gently sweet

  • Heilala vanilla — soft, rounding finish

Perfect for:

  • Replacing your usual breakfast brew

  • Anyone who likes their tea strong and a little bit special

  • A gift for coffee drinkers curious about tea

  • Hosting brunch with something worth talking about

Why we chose it:
A daily-drinker with a story. Australian-made, family-owned, and built around an ancient native ingredient that deserves a place on every breakfast table. Exactly the anti-hamper standard every Modern Gift Co box is built around.
