Tea Merchants since 1909
When tracing the roots of our company, we stumbled across some tea-stained and dusty paperwork originating from the London Tea Auctions. It was amongst these that we discovered the earliest mention of a well-respected gentleman going by the name of Mr Reginald Ames. He was engaged in the purchase of several chests of the highest quality teas.
To this day, over 100 years later, we remain true to his beliefs, that only the best quality will do! The company has however grown and diversified during this time and now works with some of the worlds most prestigious brands, hoteliers, catering outlets, supermarkets and shop chains as well as a multitude of independent stores.
Our Expertise
We take great pride in our teas and infusions drawing on our long history and knowledge we are always striving to create the best possible blends.
We source the finest ingredients which are certified ETP (Ethical Tea Partnership), Rainforest Alliance, Fairtrade, Organic or, in some cases, several of these Certifications at once. This allows us to create the best possible ethical and sustainable blends for you to enjoy.
Tea Blending
We have a vast range of tea in our UK warehouses (more than 350 different teas, herbs and infusions, used to create many thousands of different blends) that allows our experienced tea blenders to help you create the most amazing combinations of flavour, based on your exact requirements. We don’t just blend tea and herbal infusions we can also help with fruit teas and the ever-popular matcha.
We offer both a full and partial turnkey operation, whereby we will happily source and pack every element required for a new project, or just part of this – we are flexible with this and relish the opportunity to work with a wide variety of customers of all sizes.
