Tea is earth-given and human-harvested, by nature we’re advocates of both. As a brewing force for good, our recipe for the future is detailed, goal oriented and third party certified. Transparency is the most important ingredient.

Our B Corp status: ‘in a relationship’

We’ve always prioritised our relationship with people and planet but in 2020 we decided to make it official. Our B Corp certification defines what it means to be a ‘good business’ and mandates high standards of social and environmental performance. Officially recertified in 2023, we’ve maintained our sustainability standards whilst making significant improvements along the way.

Tea that’s sustainably sourced

Sips that come from a good place.

From fruits to spices, tea leaves to herb bushes, 100% of our tea is sustainably sourced. This means it has one or several third party accreditations that confirm its sustainable origins.

From then to now

From then to now

2% of our tea range is sustainably sourced. A decision is made to review the remaining 98%.

Every ingredient is reviewed with no tea leaf left unturned.

Phase one achieved. 100% of our tea leaves and herbal ingredients are sustainably sourced and have since maintained this standard.

Project complete. With the conversion of our tisanes, 100% of our range is now sustainably sourced and have since maintained this standard.

Arnhem Land Fire Abatement Project Northern Territory, Australia

In the absence of fire management by Aboriginal Traditional Landowners, Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory is prone to extreme, devastating wildfires that damage the landscape including rock art galleries, cultural sites and biodiversity.

ALFA – Arnhem Land Fire Abatement is an Aboriginal owned, not-for profit carbon farming business, that supports Aboriginal Traditional Owners and rangers to utilise customary fire knowledge and skills in tandem with contemporary technology to accomplish highly sophisticated landscape scale fire management. Their projects deliver significant emissions reductions whilst supporting environmental, cultural and social outcomes.

Winds of Change – Madurai, India Renewable Energy Projects

Across India, wind farms reduce emissions by introducing clean power to the electricity grid, which would otherwise be generated by a fossil-fuel power plant.

These projects are compatible with rural land uses and allow farmers to continue growing crops and grazing livestock up to the base of the turbines.

Where the wind turbines have been installed there has been a 300% increase in land values over the past 10 years. This is due to access to electricity, and water wells which are boosting irrigation for crops and elevating living standards.

Sustainable stores

Better by design.

Better by design.

Our first Green Star store at Bondi Junction, opened in 2020, has set a precedence for our design approach moving forward. We continue to pull from recycled timbers and sustainably certified materials while also branching out, discovering innovative suppliers and local manufacturers.

For Australian stores, our countertops for example have been finished in a product called Betta Stone, it’s made in Melbourne and consists of 80% recycled glass. In our ongoing commitment to positive social impact through store design, we've partnered with local Indigenous artists in each store's region to create unique lighting features, supported by Koskela, a B Corp certified organisation sharing our sustainability values. These collaborations not only highlight the artists' talents and cultures but also share the First Nation's spirit with our customers. We've introduced these special light fittings in seven stores since 2022 and will continue to include them in all new store designs and refits.
