A cold brew coffee filter that fits in your existing water bottle means coffee to-go is more accessible and affordable than ever—you brew and sip all in one.

Made of food-grade stainless steel and BPA-free silicone, it adjusts to your bottle’s height, is durable, and dishwasher safe.

Down east flavors from a spice gift set inspired by (and sourced from) New England. The set includes two of Curio Spice Co.’s signature spice blends along with Maine sea salt. It’s all directly sourced from farms and growers to ensure freshness and purity, and comes with recipe cards to help you get cooking.

The glass pour-over coffee maker adds modern elegance to your countertop and a treat-yourself moment to your day.
