The Tea Shelf
With tea leaves sourced directly from the estates {fresh flavours, no doubt}. They stick to the basics- white, black, oolong and green teas but their quality is one of the finest when it comes to loose teas. What’s more, they’ll send your tea in vacuum packs with details about the origin, profile, flush- everything you’d want to know or learn. You’ll be on your way to being a connoisseur.

Tea Trunk
Sometimes, the packaging makes all the difference and that’s what Tea Trunk is all about. Their tea, which is from all over the country, comes in tin boxes sporting a playful elephant and his trunk {ergo the name!}. The flavours come with a twist- we found the Chilli Chai and the Vanilla Black Tea particularly intriguing.
