The Best Holiday Gifts, Period

Our team is dedicated to finding and telling you more about the web’s best products. If you purchase through our links, we may receive a commission. Our editorial team is independent and only endorses products we believe in.

We get it. There are A LOT of gift guides out there. Seemingly every publisher on the interwebs comes out of the woodwork right about now waxing nostalgic about the holidays while pushing mediocre gifts at you for three months straight. Thankfully, you won’t find any of those humdrum guides around here. 

This holiday season, our TQE editorial staff worked very hard to bring you the best of the best gifting ideas. We tasked our team with sourcing the greatest gifts they’ve received or given, and from a list of several hundred entries we voted as a group on our standout favorites. Below you’ll find outstanding gifting inspiration across the core eight categories we cover year-round: Food/Bev, Home, Wellness, Fashion, For Him, Beauty, Parenting, and Pets. 

Without further ado, we give you our 2023 Holiday Gift Guide. No here today, gone tomorrow trends. Just the best gifts, period. From all of us at The Quality Edit, we wish you and yours a wonderful holiday season ahead.

NYC readers may know Parcelle as the impossibly chic Lower East Side wine bar, but their same immaculate vibes are available to us DTC shoppers too (blessed be). That's because Parcelle also curates gift boxes of wines in all different styles, though our favorite for the holidays is this Sparkling Wine 3-pack. From French natural bubbles to an Italian frizzante that tastes of "lemon, peaches and open air," these bottles are beguiling and beautifully sippable. Plus the labels are gorgeous, which never hurts when you're gift giving.

The mother of all Italian food purveyors is your best authority on panettone, that magically fluffy holiday dessert. Leave it to Eataly to source this absolutely show stopping 11-pound (!) masterpiece from Brera Milano 1930, which comes in its vintage packaging as a nod to their almost century-old pedigree. The price point is steep but this is a gift to feed a crowd, one that’s perfect for bringing to the most elite holiday party on your calendar. Enjoy with berries, cream, coffee or even some chocolate-hazelnut spread. However you pair it, you’ll be living la dolce vita.

Food can be poetry, and a drizzle of good olive oil on the right dish is nothing short of an artistic statement. Brightland's Artist Capsule runs with that theme, enlisting four cross-disciplinary artists to design labels for four of their crowd-favorite infused oils: Ardor (chili), Rosette (garlic), Lucid (lemon) and Arise (basil). The spicier oils are fab with pizzas and noodles, while the lemon oil adds a whole new layer to desserts. With four of these bottles on hand, your loved ones' carafe will runneth over.

It's no secret that we love Thrive Market; in fact, it's where we often source new food items for the Snack Bar column. The online brand offers the best in high-quality, non-GMO, and sustainable groceries, at discounted prices that put Whole Foods to shame. With fast, carbon-neutral shipping on every order, and the cost of each annual membership sponsoring access to a family in need, shopping through Thrive is as beneficial as it is convenient.

You don't forget where you were the first time you tried Honey Mama's. I was standing in a friend's kitchen when I sampled their Ginger Cardamom flavor, instantly aware that I might have a new favorite dessert. There's something about the combination of dark cocoa, raw honey and smooth coconut oil that's truly transcendent, and there's no better way to indulge than with their 9-flavor variety pack. Whoever you're gifting will find something to love, whether it's the Tahini Tangerine flavor, the Coffee Nib Crunch, or even good-old-fashioned Chocolate Cake.

There are a lot of coffee subscriptions and gift sets out there, but how many of them are flash-frozen? While the concept might sound bizarre at first, Cometeer roasts and brews unbelievable coffee — before showering it in liquid nitrogen to create frozen tablets that lock in every flavor. That means all you have to do is melt your Cometeer and you're ready to go, and the gift box has 32 cups' worth of their finest seasonal coffees to cozy up with. You can also add on packs of Decaf or Half-Caff coffee, as well as tasting glasses and a (gorgeous) electric kettle.

Flamingo Estate isn’t just a brand, it’s a lifestyle. Their products represent the best of both worlds: sensual luxury with to-die-for aesthetics that’s still rooted in sustainability and regenerative farming practices. From their hilltop garden perched above Los Angeles, they’ve packaged some of their best sellers into one must-have gift box: Mediterranean Rosemary & Clary Sage Hand Soap, Climbing Tuscan Rosemary Candle, and their flagship Heritage Extra Virgin Olive Oil among others. For a $15 surcharge you can have it gift wrapped, but whichever way you go know that this box is a knockout.

Though no-ABV drinks are the ones popping up like wildfire, it's low-ABV offerings we're most smitten with. There's nothing better than starting your night off with an aperitif, especially when it's as fresh and zingy as Current Cassis' blackcurrant liqueur. It's the hero ingredient in a kir royale, a mixture of champagne and cassis, but pouring some CC and soda over ice is all you need to unwind in style. Even as a fledgling brand from the Hudson Valley, they've taken beverage tastemakers by storm.

While a showerhead might not be first on your gift-giving list, it’s actually the ideal present: a luxury someone might not necessarily purchase for themselves, that significantly elevates a daily ritual. Oh, and it feels fantastic too. Shop it in five striking colorways.

There’s no gift better than a well-rested sleep, and bedding brand Parachute has been around the block for a reason. It’s Instagrammable (especially its chic, muted-green Moss shade, which is just one step past neutral), soft to the touch, and gets even comfier with each wash. Linen is an ideal thermoregulating fabric too, with a coolness in summer and coziness during winter that will appeal to each sleeper. (Plus, if you’re shopping for a partner, it is in fact a gift for both of y’all.)

TQE Editors swear by the transformative (seriously life-changing) power of Eight Sleep’s Pod 3 Cover — a smart, thermoregulating mattress pad that can do everything from adjust your bed to your ideal snoozing temperature to track your sleep cycles and optimize accordingly. You can customize each side of the bed to suit and adjust to different partners—ideal for the couple who can never quite make the sleeping arrangement work. While undoubtedly a splurge, the Eight Sleep tech is the most comprehensive sleep device on the market today, and gives you back your time and energy in spades. One of our biggest regrets is discovering the absolute nirvana of the Eight Sleep system because it makes us almost not want to sleep in other beds, like that five-star-hotel sleep we previously craved. (With a turn-down service that starts preparing your sleep climate before you even climb between the sheets, it’s practically the same thing, right?) Your Pod 3 cover can even wake you up via a built-in vibration alarm.

Inspired by a pair of penannular earrings from approximately 1635-1458 B.C.housed by The Met, J.Hannah’s mini hoops are richly sculptural in design and can be purchased in either sterling silver or 14k gold.

Ridge

Tobacco Brown Leather Wallet

$125

Code:

Credit: Ridge

A beautifully made wallet is a slam dunk gift every time, especially when it's made from full-grain, high-quality leather. This knockout from Ridge has enough details to be one-of-a-kind, from visible screws and stitching to leather cash strap around the back. It also blocks the RFID (radio frequency identification) signals from your credit cards to protect them from wireless theft, meaning it's as safe and secure as it is sexy.

If you want to gift the comfiest pair of shoes known to man, buy Pellis. Full stop. Our editors have practically lived in theirs for three years, and the cushioned soles have held up perfectly even with the constant wear. Chalk that up to their Triple Stack Technology, with multiple layers of padding that envelop your foot from top to bottom. They feel like house shoes, but are so cozy your giftee will be wearing them out for every errand.

Loafers are undisputedly very "in" right now, becoming a go-to casual choice while still retaining their formal functionality. The Mason Horse Bit Loafers stand out from the pack, with a textural, rough suede that looks almost woolen. They're also Goodyear welted, an artisanal category of shoe that allows them to be resoled while keeping the fabric integrity intact. Long story short, that suede ain't going nowhere, which is good news when the look is this bold and eye-catching.

Hawthorne

Sophisticated and Spicy Oud Play Cologne

Credit: Hawthorne

Cologne can get a bad rap these days, which we're tempted to blame on the Axe Body Spray effect. Consider Hawthorne's elevated, addictive scents the antidote, like this cologne rooted in essential oils from the rare agarwood tree. That oil, oud, is a warm, earthy, woody note, balanced by sharp and sweet Seville orange and slightly peppery Egyptian geranium. It lingers in the right way without being overpowering, and has a great price tag for the luxury it evokes.

Hemp CBD Pre Rolled Joints 10 Pack

Are you (or your giftee) one to avoid joints because of paranoia and loss of control? Dad Grass is your answer. Their pre-rolled CBD joints are totally free of THC, so they support relaxing and socializing while keeping you fully in the driver's seat. CBD's benefits around pain relief and insomnia are mainstream science at this point, so these puppies come in handy whether you're at a pool party or tucking yourself into bed. Plus that '70s Cali packaging is pretty hard to beat.

Hardcore runners are very much in-the-know about how solid a brand Tracksmith is, but the rest of us can enjoy this killer duffel whether or not we're marathon training. While it can very much tote running shoes or towels to and from the gym, it's also sleek and durable enough to be your new favorite carry-on. The canvas sides look great and the leather bottom looks even better.

You might think of a pocket knife as a very dad-coded gift (not that that's a bad thing)... but then you clearly haven't seen this Art Deco inspired offering from Deejo. The geometric design that's been laser engraved onto the blade is a total showstopper, and the juniper wood handle it nests in is the perfect counterpoint. The name comes from the knife's weight – only 37 grams – making it an ultralight pocket item that cuts perfectly every time.

If you're like me, your coffee choice is on-point and your pourover system is pristine, but your electric kettle looks like an office supply from 1997. At least that's how I lived before the Fellow electric kettle, which is sleek enough to display proudly on any counter. The precision temperature control is the headlining feature here, but the precision pour spout is a game-changer for avoiding scalding spills. Boiling water just became the new highlight of teatime.

While we stand by the value of the CBD joints above, the THC lovers in your life deserve a little treat as well. The Marble Rolling Set from Seth Rogen-founded Houseplant is undoubtedly a splurge, but it's got the elegance that makes every smoke sesh feel like a vacation. Included in the set are a marble tray, a sculptural deep-well ashtray with joint rest, and a brass grinder that actually does its job and doesn't gum up. It's the Cadillac of weed paraphernalia from one of our most weed-positive celebrities.

The Buck Mason chore coat almost defies description. It's got the elegance of a blazer but the pockets of a cardigan, made of felted wool that feels Old Word but with a collar that's cool and modern. It's a totally unique piece for the stylish man who has everything, gorgeous in Black or Dust colorways but best of all in the greenish Marled Santa Fe Dust. Buck Mason is known for their excellent tailoring and this coat is no exception; it hugs the arms but leaves room in the torso for layering, making it wearable all the way until spring.

That is unless you get yourself this leak-resistant model from YETI, which comes with a screw-on lid that won’t come flying off when you flex your shaking technique. That simple design perk makes a world of difference, as does the add-on Rambler Lid that lets you sip right from the source during outdoor adventures. It’s durable and portable: we wouldn’t expect any less from YETI.

We get it, the thought of fake tan can instill fear in your heart. Memories of late 00s orange complexions and patchy elbows definitely come to mind. However, fake tan has entered a new era thanks to Saltyface. The family-owned Canadian brand is here to take you to the bronze age – seamlessly and naturally, with their minimalist range which blurs the lines between skincare and self tan. The Essential Tanning Set is a great place to start, not to mention a great gift idea. The three piece kit contains Tanning Water for the face, Tanning Foam for the body, and a vegan body brush for foolproof, streakless application.

With so much emphasis on facial skincare, our hands can often be overlooked. SIDIA sets out to change that with their luxury hand care duo set, consisting of an exfoliating hand wash and nourishing serum. With the combined scent notes of bergamot, vetiver, citrus and amber and nutritive ingredients such as avocado and shea butter, this chic black bottled duo will not only care for dry hands, but might also (albeit, briefly) transport them to a place of tranquility.

At TQE we also love brands with a message; SIDA is inspired by strong family roots, and reconnecting with yourself which we think makes this gift extra special.

Skincare doesn’t end with skincare and serums. This is where the ancient Chinese practice of Gua Sha steps in. Whilst there are numerous tools available on the market, Wilding Beauty’s Empress is top rated for a reason. The sustainably sourced weighty Bian stone is a marvel with numerous health benefits (and a winner of two beauty awards). Constructed with five different edges, designed to target specific areas, it’s easy to see why the Empress is so popular. 

One reviewer simply claims that “there is no substitute for this tool” and others praise the de-puffing and facial contouring benefits.

It might be called a Jet Lag Mask, but Summer Fridays’ cocooning intense moisturizing balm is a treat for anyone on your gift list. If they’ve been dealing with stressed out skin or simply need some TLC, they’ll adore this (and you). The deeply nourishing yet lightweight formula – which has won a handful of awards – is somewhat of a skincare unicorn, and can also be used as an under eye mask and primer. Recently reformulated to include vitamin b5, chamomile and comfrey, it remains fragrance free and non-comedogenic and has even received a seal of acceptance from the National Eczema Association!
