Holiday tea gift??!
My second question: Has anyone heard of www.customleaf.com and do you think it would make a good Christmas present for a tea lover?
Answers: My first question is: If I buy a tea gift for a friend today, will it hold until Christmas? (Is there an expiration on tea?)

I have tea that is a couple years old and it's still okay. You'll want to buy tea in a sealed package (i.e. not just a box) to maintain freshness.
That would be a great Christmas present for someone who enjoys different teas but if your friend is a very particular tea drinker I wouldn't recommend it! If you don't drink tea ask a tea drinker for advice when choosing or get a gift certificate.
Try teavana.com they have a great selection of teas and many more things that accompany it. Also, the tea should be fine until christmas if stored properly.
before you go Internet see if you have a WORLD MARKET near you or something similar they have great teas from around the world and you know what you're getting
