The Tea Makers of London

Loose Leaf Tea

If you want to experience the world’s favourite beverage at its authentic best, you need to steep yourself in the world of loose-leaf tea. We offer some of the world’s finest tea leaves, meticulously sourced from tea estates in China, India, Sri Lanka, Japan, Taiwan and Nepal. Our online shop includes a wide range of styles: green, black, white, oolong, Pu-erh and flowering teas, plus herbal and fruit infusions. Whether you’re a tea connoisseur, enthusiast or just fancy exploring the world of loose-leaf teas, there’s a perfect cup of tea for everyone at our online store.

Why Loose-leaf Teas Are Best

The dried leaves of Camellia sinensis come in a dazzling variety of styles. Browse the teas in our online store and a closer look at the leaves will reveal an array of weird and wonderful forms, from thin, black and wiry to round, yellow-green and downy. Zoom in and you may imagine yourself as an ant, crawling through an alien forest of sorts. Each of these fantastically shaped teas represents a unique tasting experience that even the best teabags will be hard-pressed to match.

By buying a caddy of The Tea Makers of London luxury loose-leaf tea, you are investing in a tea that maintains its character as the producer intended, without being broken down or adulterated by mass processing. The joy of many such teas is its variation – like different vintages of fine wines, the teas from a certain tea garden, made to a set style, will still offer subtle nuances year to year, harvest to harvest.

The tradition of brewing loose-leaf tea is also a cultural experience in itself – and an excellent excuse to upgrade your teaware! So why not join us as we slow down, take a deep breath, warm the pot, pour the water and then watch the leaves expand and unfurl before our eyes...
