Coffee Beans

Branded bottled water (500-unit run) lands around $1–2 per unit; a bottle of extra-virgin olive oil in dark glass with custom labeling runs $4–8; a loose-leaf tea collection runs $6–14 depending on tin or pouch format and number of varieties.

Light exposure accelerates the breakdown of the oil's flavor compounds, so dark (typically green or amber) glass genuinely extends shelf life and flavor quality compared to clear glass or plastic.

It's a legal grade based on free acidity below 0.8% and passing sensory panel testing for defects, set by the International Olive Council. Sourcing an authentic extra-virgin product requires documentation from the producer confirming this grading, not just a label claim.

Typically 300–500 units per label design, though the food or beverage product itself often carries its own separate minimum from the producer, which frequently becomes the limiting factor rather than the packaging.

Whole bean stays fresh significantly longer and benefits more from a one-way degassing valve if gifted soon after roasting; ground coffee has a shorter freshness window and is more sensitive to storage time, so gifting timelines matter more.

Airtight, light-blocking packaging, a metal tin or a foil-lined pouch, preserves aroma best; a clear or loosely sealed container lets tea lose flavor and aroma noticeably faster.

Olive oil falls under HS 1509; coffee under HS 0901; tea under HS 0902; bottled water under HS 2201. Each product has its own chapter — confirm per SKU rather than treating this as one category.
