The teas and herbal infusions

Where is the tea from?

Ceylon (Sri Lanka). Joe loves the flavour profile of Ceylon tea; it’s light, floral and refreshing. All our organic black, green and white teas are sourced there.

Where are the herbal ingredients from?

Some are from Sri Lanka and some, the rest of the world, depending on where the best tasting, organic fruits and herbs are grown each year.

Are the teas organic?

Yes, every single one of them is certified by the Soil Association in the UK (USDA and Ecocert internationally). Organic certification ensures the teas are grown without the use of chemicals and pesticides, and in the most sustainable way possible.

Which teas contain caffeine?

Ever-So-English Breakfast, Ever-So-English Everyday and The Earl of Grey are black teas containing caffeine. Ever-So-English Decaf is gently decaffeinated with CO2 but is not completely caffeine-free. Queen of Green and Whiter Than White have less caffeine (and more antioxidants) respectively. All the rest are caffeine-free.

What are the tea bags made from?

Our pyramid bags, string and tag are made from sugar cane, cotton and paper making them all biodegradable and suitable for your food waste bin at home

How do you make the perfect cup of tea?

Use freshly boiled fresh water for black teas and 80°c for all greens, whites and herbals. Infuse for as long as you like and add a splash of milk, a dribble of honey or a sprig of herbs if you fancy.
