“Birchbox, But For Foodies Who Love Zwan”

“Birchbox, But For Foodies Who Love Zwan”

Billy Corgan has outed himself as a lover of artisanal shit. As Exclaim points out, the legendary Smashing Pumpkins frontman curated a tasting box for the company Farm To People, a subscription service that delivers hand-picked small-batch goodies to your door each month. Corgan’s box retails for $129.95 and includes a selection of tea from his Chicago-based shop Madame Zuzu’s as well as an array of “unique vegan and paleo treats.” Among those treats are sprouted hazelnut butter, bourbon-smoked sea salt, and chunky coconut raw chocolate bars. Three buyers will receive a handwritten note from Corgan, too. Have a look at the Pumpkin-free selection below:

The basket is being marketed as a Father’s Day special, but if triple figures seems a little pricey, perhaps Dad could get by with the “Food Critic” tasting box Corgan curated for Farm To People’s monthly subscription service. That one will run you $49.95 for “tea from Madame Zuzu’s, along with many other small-batch surprises.” In a press release, Corgan explains he did all this because “all over the country, there are passionate makers creating wholesome, tasty products with real ingredients.”
