The company is setting the standard for premium everyday tea, sourcing and retailing whole-leaf and pyramid tea bags packed with full-bodied, distinctive flavours.
The products include something for everyone, from breakfast blends to herbal infusions, all of which are made using ethically sourced leaves from certified growers and farms. Each blend is quality-checked by the in-house team.
Significant investments have been made in proprietary drinking and storage equipment, as well as gifting ranges.

Our clients are offering the company for sale as they believe the time is right for a new owner to take the brand to the next level. Offers invited.
