London Tea Club
I loved the name of the London Tea Club even before I knew what it was. And then, when I knew what it was, I loved it even more…
I have written about a few different subscription services in the past – greetings cards, gorgeous beauty products… but tea? Tea, never.
London Tea Club source six different teas from around the world every month. Then based on your preferences, they’ll send you samples of three of the teas, which they think you’ll love.
Cleverly, their special tea delivery packages fit through any letterbox, so you’ll never have to worry about a missed delivery – I came home to find mine twinkling up at me from the doormat.. and opening it was a complete delight…
Founder Cecelia Lau, discovered tea years ago, when friends from Iran introduced her to Persian tea…
“The first cup, Earl Grey sweetened with nabat and spiced with saffron, started my obsession with tea culture from from around the world. I’ve since experienced tea ceremony with friends in Tokyo, learned to brew chai with family in Mumbai, and sipped vintage puerh with strangers at a pop-up tea tent. Tea opens the senses and makes me feel grounded and connected to the people around me; London Tea Club is a project to bring this feeling of inspiration and wellness to others…”

This is such a wonderful thing, and with their subscriptions starting at £10 a month, it’s the perfect treat for yourself or for a cosy Christmas gift… the branding and packaging is all so pretty too – you really feel like you’re receiving something special.

Tea is one of my favourite things.. and this has just made my love for it even greater.
Cuppa, anyone?
