Never fails!
It's the most delicate and subtle English Breakfast I've tried and yet full of flavour. It also offered me the chance to discover proper tea through Brew Tea Co and to become a tea enthusiast.

A Great Christmas Present
A lovely Christmas-themed blend with a well-balanced flavour. It has a gentle hint of spice without being overwhelming. I first ordered a pack for myself and then picked up a few more as gifts for friends and family.

Happy Subscriber
I'm so pleased I signed up to The Modernist subscription. Admittedly I have a rather large stash of English Breakfast Tea but being able to adjust the delivery dates does help. Can you ever have too much tea?!

Rolled Whole Leaves
We only ever use rolled, whole leaves in all of our blends. Tea leaves are sorted by size, and these large, leafy beauties are left as intact as possible, preserving their richness.
Find yourself a few minutes to have a pot of tea, and watch them unfurl and release all that goodness into the pot, right where you want it. The end result is a bold, bright pot of tea with much more to it than any sludgy paper tea bag. They’re the whole package, and well worth a five minute wait. When it comes to tea, we believe bigger definitely means better.
Tea HQ was set up by Aideen and Phil in 2012, with one aim - to get beautiful, rolled whole leaves to as many tea drinkers as possible.
Back then we were armed with a handful of blends, a box of sharpies, a Nissan Cube and this idea that these chunky leaves made a better looking and tasting cup of tea - and from the outset, we were delighted to find that some very discerning Drinkers seemed to agree with us.
Fast forward a few years and millions of pots of tea later, a few things have changed, but our dedication to rolled whole leaves is as earnest now as it was then.
