MIGHTY TEA GIFT
If you've tried Mighty Leaf tea, you know how aromatic a cup can be. For the tea freak on your holiday list who loves bold flavor, the company sells an Abaca Holiday Tea Box with 30 whole-leaf biodegradable tea pouches that include such blends as Organic Breakfast, Marrakesh Mint and Ginger Twist. (The Bombay Chai was our fave). Cost: $24.99. Available online at www.mightyleaf.com.
DOOZY TUMBLERS
We've been big fans of Riedel wine and beverage glasses for a while now. We love the way they marry elegant form with functional design. (OK, we confess: We're suckers for anything that aids in the act of imbibing.) Riedel's latest glass, an engraved stemless tumber called DoOzys, is less buttoned-down than its usual offerings but still very elegant. Designed as a spirits glass, each of the 8-ounce glasses in the four-pack has a different graphic motif above the base that is machine cut with a satin finish to retain just a hint of silvery gray. Cost: $79 for a set of 4. Available at:

TAKE A LOAD OFF
The cooking is done and you, sir, are ready to sit a spell. But where? A man can only haul along so many folding chairs. Why not turn your pickup's tailgate into a comfy two-seat bench with the TaleGator? With contoured seats and beverage and food compartments, it works for tailgating, camping or any outdoor activity. The TaleGator is designed to fit in the back of mid- to full-size pickup trucks. (A smaller version will be out next year.) It comes in gator-embossed black, camouflage and some college logos, including the University of Florida. Prices range from $79 to $107. Available at www.thetalegator.com or call (866) 67-GATOR.
