Happy Customer
Quick delivery, well packaged and reasonably priced mugs and tea. I really like shape, feel and colour of the mugs with the infusor baskets and the tea stays hot for longer when I use the lids.

We love the taste of our tea
We love the taste of our tea!
With a bonus of quick delivery.
I bought two types of gunpowder tea and a strainer for my mum for Mother’s Day. She loves both.
The amount is good value. I also bought Moroccan mint which I’ve had from elsewhere, this particular tea is very nice!
I haven’t yet tried the pear and cinnamon but I’m sure it will be just as good
