Want Ceylon tea packets as gifts. Better to buy mid-morning now before shops get busy tonight. Not postcards-and-stamps slow morning, and not wooden mask craft hunt.

Yes — mid-morning is fine for sealed tea packets from a proper shop. Check roast date if shown, avoid opened sample jars as gifts, and pack packets in the middle of soft clothes.

Supermarket tea is fine for casual gifts; specialty shops for nicer boxes.
