Matcha advent calendars are one box for 2026: Bird & Blend's, 24 flavoured matchas at two cups each in tins, with a hojicha among them, for 55 GBP against an 80 GBP figure. It is a lot of matcha for the money and the flavourings are the point of it: a purist will want the plain tin, which this is not.

24 doorsHow to choose a matcha advent calendar
- Step 01
Read the weight before the door count
Twenty-four doors can weigh 180 g or 850 g, and nobody on a food shelf prints a valuation, so grams per door is the figure that separates a box of mini balls from a box of bars. The calendar pages print the weight where the maker does; a 24-door box under 200 g is a taste a day, over 500 g is a real piece.
- Step 02
Prefer a printed list, or know why there is none
4 of the 5 here come with the maker's list of what is behind the doors — Matcha Kari Ceremonial Organic Matcha 2025, Art of Tea | Matcha 24 packets and Bird & Blend Matcha 2024 among them; 1 does not (Maxim KANU Matcha Latte 24 Sticks). Where a maker will not say what is behind door nine, the page says so, and the score reflects it.
- Step 03
Compare the price per door
Across the 5 here with a list price, a door costs from about $1 to about $3, and the median is about $2.08. A chocolate door under a dollar is a mini ball; a door over three dollars should be a bar or a named praline. How the door price is counted
- Step 04
Start from this season's, from the ones we have opened
1 of the 5 on this page are 2026 editions and every one carries a verdict from us. The earlier editions stay listed for the record; the grid puts this season first.
