Why Loose Leaf Tea?

It tastes amazing: Whole leaves give you a more complex, fuller flavour.

It's kind to the Earth: No plastic, no frills, just natural biodegradable leaves.

It's reusable: You can reinfuse most loose leaf teas several times - giving you more tea and less waste.

Glow Botanical Wellness Infusion Teabags come in a gray box adorned with floral illustrations and blue accents. Each box contains 20 individually wrapped teabags, featuring a strawberry flavor and biotin to support hair and skin health.

Why Individually Wrapped Teabags?

  • They're convenient. These fuss-free teabags are also perfect for packing when you travel.
  • They stay fresh. Each teabag is individually wrapped, keeping that fresh flavour sealed in for longer.
  • They make fantastic gifts. From Tea Discoveries to our Wonderland Tea Selection, there's endless ideas to dazzle and delight.

Why Traditional Teabags?

  • They're convenient. Just the thing for a quick, simple fuss-free cuppa.
  • They're great with milk. You'll get a stronger brew faster, with a flavour that won't be drowned out by adding milk.
