We know why you're here. The coffee brought you in. Maybe it was the single-origin Ethiopian. Maybe it was the mushroom blend that made you feel like a functional adult for the first time in years. Either way — welcome. We're glad you're here.
Now. We need to talk about the teas.
Not because you asked. But because they're exceptional, they're sitting right there, and frankly they deserve better than being the thing people notice after they've already filled their cart with coffee.
Why Does a Coffee Brand Have a Tea Collection?
Because we have standards, and those standards don't stop at coffee.
Great tea and great coffee share the same DNA — both shaped by altitude, soil, climate, and processing. Both taste completely different when sourced well versus when they're not. Both reward attention and proper brewing. And both are, at their best, a reason to slow down and actually taste something instead of just consuming caffeine like it's a job requirement.
We got into tea the same way we got into coffee: we tasted something exceptional and refused to go back. So here we are. Obsessed. Unapologetic. Fully caffeinated.
Moroccan Mint
Mint tea in Morocco isn't just a drink — it's hospitality, ritual, and a full cultural institution poured into a glass. Our Moroccan Mint honors that tradition with a bold, aromatic blend that's invigorating and grounding in equal measure. It's the tea you make when you want to feel like you're somewhere warmer, more interesting, and not staring at your inbox.
It works. We can't explain it. Just trust the mint.
Best brewed: 3–4 minutes in just-off-boil water. A touch of honey brings out the full experience and makes you feel like you have a whole ritual going, even if you're standing at the kitchen counter in socks.
Matcha
If you've only had grocery-store matcha, we say this with love: you haven't had matcha. Ours is smooth, vibrantly green, and genuinely umami — no bitterness, no chalkiness, no mysterious beige powder that tastes like lawn clippings.
It contains L-theanine, which pairs with caffeine to give you focused, steady energy without the jittery spiral. It's the "I need to be productive but I also need to remain a calm, reasonable person" drink. We understand. We've been there. We made the matcha for exactly this reason.
Best brewed: Whisk 1 tsp into 2 oz of 175°F water until frothy. Add steamed milk for a latte, or drink it straight if you want to feel very serious and intentional about your afternoon.
Earl Grey
Earl Grey is the tea that has been effortlessly cool since the 1800s and has never once felt the need to explain itself. A classic black tea infused with bergamot — a fragrant citrus fruit that gives it that signature floral, slightly citrusy lift — it's bold enough to stand up to milk, nuanced enough to drink straight, and sophisticated enough to make you feel like you have your life together.
Even if you're drinking it in pajamas at 2pm. Especially then, actually. That's peak Earl Grey behavior and we fully endorse it.
Best brewed: 3–4 minutes in freshly boiled water. A splash of oat or whole milk makes a proper London Fog. Straight lets the bergamot do its thing uninterrupted, which it very much appreciates.
Peach Paradise
The name is not an exaggeration. Peach Paradise is exactly what it sounds like — a sun-drenched, gloriously peachy cup that tastes like summer decided to show up uninvited and you're completely fine with it. Sweet, fragrant, and just a little flirtatious, this one doesn't take itself too seriously. Neither should you while drinking it.
It's the tea for slow mornings, back porch moments, and any occasion where you want to feel like life is, against all odds, going pretty well.
Best brewed: 3–4 minutes in just-off-boil water. Serve over ice for an iced tea that will make everyone in the room ask what you're drinking. Tell them it's complicated. It's not. It's just very good.
Mango Treat
If Peach Paradise is summer on a porch, Mango Treat is summer on a beach with no responsibilities and excellent Wi-Fi. Bold, tropical, and unapologetically fruity, this is the tea that makes you feel like you made a great decision — because you did.
It's bright, it's juicy, and it has absolutely no interest in being subtle about it. We respect that. You will too.
Best brewed: 3–4 minutes in just-off-boil water. Outstanding hot, transcendent iced. Add a squeeze of lime if you want to feel like a mixologist. You've earned it.
