green tea leaves

Direct Trade

We buy our tea straight from the source - direct from tea growers, some of whom we’ve known for over 20 years.

Buying direct isn’t the easiest or cheapest route, but it’s the right one for us. It means that the prices we offer are fair, transparent, and reflect true value not just to our customers, but to our suppliers too.

We specialise in high-quality loose leaf tea — not the commoditised smaller grades you find in teabags. These are carefully crafted whole leaves, commanding a higher price because of their flavour and quality.

We can trace every sack of tea purchased back to where and when it was grown. Having this traceability, and by tasting every batch, means only the highest quality tea makes the final selection. It’s how we guarantee freshness and consistency in every cup.

Buying direct isn’t just about great quality tea — it’s about forging deeper connections with the roots of a product, building strong relationships with our growers, and showcasing the wonderful craftmanship behind every cup.
