Cast your mind back to the early 2000s.
Tea was beige. Tea was dusty. Tea was the drink you made when coffee felt like too much effort. A flat bag, hot water, two minutes, done. Nobody talked about it. Nobody got excited about it. It just existed.
Meanwhile, coffee was having the time of its life.
Flat whites. Single origin. Cold brew. Pour overs. The world woke up, collectively decided that coffee was interesting, and never looked back.
In 2006, teapigs decided enough was enough.
If coffee could be exciting, so could tea. Real tea. Whole-leaf tea. Tea made with proper big leaves that actually need room to unfurl, brewed in a Temple (not a flat bag) because that is how you get the flavour out. Big leaf. Big flavour. No nasties. Nothing stuffy about it.
Nearly 20 years later, teapigs is still at it. And we have just started stocking the full range.
Twelve flavours. Fifty envelopes.
Peppermint Leaves: Not mint flavouring. Actual peppermint leaves. The difference in a mug is considerable.
Lemon and Ginger: The autumn essential. Warming, zingy, and considerably more effective than you might expect.
Chai Tea: Spiced, warming, proper chai. The kind that makes October feel like a perfectly acceptable month.
English Breakfast: For those who are not ready to abandon the classics entirely. Just better than anything in a flat bag.
Chamomile Flowers: 100% chamomile flowers. No blending, no filler. The real thing.
And seven more fantastic flavours where those came from.
