This device accelerates a wine’s aeration process, exposing it to air and letting it “breathe” within minutes of uncorking to bring out the best flavours, so you do not have to decant it hours before serving. The gadget can also create vacuum seals and mix cocktails.

2. Fortnum & Mason teas

 
The Fortnum & Mason name is synonymous with the best of British teas and, for the festive season, there are two Christmas blends to choose from. The Christmas Black Tea (HK$268) evokes the holiday spirit with its blend of cocoa nibs, clementine and Christmas spices – ideal for sipping with a side of shortbread.

For lighter flavours, there is the Christmas Green Tea (HK$248) – a blend of tea, star aniseed, licorice, coconut and sweet vanilla.
