The Best Gifts for Taurus, the Zodiac’s Resident Epicurean
Scouted selects products independently. If you purchase something from our posts, we may earn a small commission.
Uncork the bubbly and draw an excessively sudsy bath, because we’ve officially made it to Taurus season. This year, the zodiac’s most indulgent earth sign will reign from April 19 to May 20, and remind us all to celebrate life’s creature comforts by sleeping in, eating out, and finally smashing the order button on a luxurious linen duvet cover.
If there’s a Taurus or two in your life, congratulations. Not only do you have a stalwart friend and epicurean by your side, but you have the very sick task of finding the perfect birthday present for one of the most gift-able zodiac signs. Sure, Taurus has earned the reputation of being a human Snorlax, which is totally fair, but there’s an intensity and drive behind the impeccable taste of this sign, repped by the bull, that also makes them a ride-or-die partner. In the words of our favorite Taurus diva, Cher, “I’m very chill, I’m really sweet, and if you fuck with me, I’ll mop the floor with you.”
If you’re drawing birthday gift blanks, we suggest gifting your Taurus something sparkly, but fierce (tell them it’s a metaphor). Cook for your bull. Rub their feet. Wrap them up in a faux chinchilla fur blanket, and garnish their Bloody Mary with a piece of bacon and a big kiss on the forehead. And if that’s not enough—your Taurus deserves the world, after all—gift them any number of the Taurus-worthy gifts we’ve curated below. From pasta-themed tarot decks to cult-fave relaxation gadgets, the following presents will sweep them off their hooves and keep them satisfied. Well, at least until next year rolls around.

It has been covered in sweat, alcohol, pool, water, lake water, ocean water, and I don’t even know what else and still looks BRAND NEW.”

Upgrade Their Cooking Lineup
Flamingo Estate Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Taurus appreciates the time and care that goes into a home-cooked meal. That’s why they’ll savor a really, really nice bottle of EVOO such as this from Flamingo Estate, the organic lifestyle brand that offers everything from heirloom tomato candles to Art Nouveau bon bons. Naturally, the brand’s olive oil is also extra—not just in the virginal sense, but because it’s made with hand-harvested olives from trees that are over 100 years old.
