The Musical Carousel from Akbar is a decorated gift tin shaped as a fairground carousel, holding 250 g of loose Ceylon tea. Wind the mechanism on the base and the tin plays a tune, which is what makes it a favourite for festive gifting.
The tea inside is made for a full-bodied cup with a classic aroma. The metal tin has a close-fitting lid to keep out moisture, light and kitchen smells, and once the tea is finished it stays on the shelf as a keepsake or a box for small things.
Akbar presents the carousel in a seasonal window box, so it is ready to give without extra wrapping.
