    Shipping is free over £25 (£3.95 below £25). Place your order before 5pm and we'll ship it that same day (Mon-Fri). It'll go Tracked Next Day with Royal Mail, unless you need DHL Next Day which is £10. International is little different, click here.
    As long as it’s unused and boxed you can send it back, but we recommend you to get in touch first to see if we can help. You’ll have to ship it back to us yourself, and we recommend using tracked delivery.

    Make sure you write us a note with your details in the box so we know who it’s from. Once it arrives, we’ll get your refund or exchange sorted.

    400ml is perfect for 5g of loose leaf tea. If you're using a tea bag, 300ml is bang on. Brewing this one is all about finding just how you like it. Try brewing for 3-4 minutes black, or 4-5 minutes with milk.

    Brewing Tip

    Your tea will start tasting bitter if it’s left to brew for too long so if you fancy a stronger cup, add some more tea leaves.
    Ingredients

    Ingredients

    Origins

      Best. Tea. Ever!

      We found this tea in a tiny little coffee shop in Brixton while vacationing there last year. I ordered the teapot and tea before we’d finished drinking it that day. We have been ordering it for the last year and will continue to do so! Have since ordered more teapots and tea to give as gifts. Best tea ever.

      Totally converted

      It’s not only the flavour we love but the but the freshness and quality are second to none. And we drink tea else where, (regular teabags…) we always exchange a glance and silent comment on how it just doesn’t cut it! Total converts!
