This collection is curated for those who seek tranquility without compromising the quality or ethical integrity of their brew.

For us, the adventure isn't just about the peak; it's about the entire journey, which includes upholding the highest standards of ethical sourcing. Every single-origin tea in this collection is traceable, hand-picked from farms that prioritize sustainable agriculture and guarantee fair wages and supportive working conditions for their employees. We partner exclusively with expert tea producers who share our commitment to environmental stewardship and social equity. This meticulous process ensures that your cup of tea is not only a moment of personal solace but also an act of global responsibility.

The Retea Commitment: More Than Just a Brew

Our tea line is branded Retea to reflect its core mission: to reinvest in the communities that cultivate our exceptional leaves. Every Retea purchase directly supports our partner non-profits focused on sustainable development and access to clean water in tea-growing regions. This is our promise: your daily ritual powers meaningful, measurable change across the globe. By choosing Retea, you are purchasing more than just loose leaf tea; you are joining a mission to ensure a better future for the families who pour their expertise and care into every harvest.

From the bold and bright Assam Black—a perfect high-caffeine start for the day's trek—to our gentle Breakfast Tea blend, Retea offers a variety of experiences for every taste and moment. We invite you to explore the complex, nuanced flavors of our high-quality, ethically-traded selection. Each bag represents a profound connection between the dedicated farmer, the wild landscape, and your quiet moment of reflection.

Settle in, brew a cup that matters, and let the quiet fuel of Retea prepare you for the adventure ahead. Choose your blend and support the cause.
