Hello, America!
This is our story.
We are Ruth, Dave (& Portia) from The Tea Thief in New Zealand and we're shaking up the way folks think about tea! Because we love tea. Not just any old tea, but high-quality organic, sustainably farmed tea curated from remote corners of the globe and combined in unique blends.
Searching for caffeine-free alternatives while going through fertility treatment, we were amazed to find how many wonderfully healthy, beneficial teas existed. We created The Tea Thief out of our passion for exploring and discovering new blends and ingredients – from ancient shamanic herbs to Ayurvedic remedies. And we will always love the everyday ritual of choosing which tea suits our mood and needs!
​
Based in Auckland, New Zealand, and now available in the US, The Tea Thief is dedicated to enhancing lives through our premium teas, which have been carefully selected for their flavor and health-supporting properties. We have spent years researching, tasting, blending and brewing to bring you some of nature's best remedies.
​
Our values are to ensure we only buy directly from growers or suppliers that we know are ethical, and have sustainable practices. We provide organic and wild teas while ensuring that every tea is beneficial for your health, body, mind and spirit.
