24 days, 23 different teas and a little Christmas magic from the Scottish Highlands! 🎄🫖

Our very first Loose-Leaf Tea Advent Calendar is here!

We’ve been busy behind the scenes putting these together, and we’re so pleased to finally share them with you. ❤️

Inside you’ll find 23 different premium loose-leaf teas, including 9 of our own blends, lovingly hand-blended in small batches here in the Scottish Highlands.

And these aren’t just tiny samples! Each day contains enough loose-leaf tea for around 2–3 cups, so there’s plenty to enjoy.

You’ll also find a reusable tea strainer to help you enjoy your daily cuppa.

Already have a strainer? No problem! You can swap it for 2 extra teas instead — bringing your total to 25 different teas!

We’ve even tucked in a few little festive surprises along the way. 🎁

A lovely way to count down to Christmas, one cosy cuppa at a time.

🎄 Available now on our website!

Remember toffee apples on Bonfire Night? 🍎🔥

There’s something wonderfully nostalgic about Bonfire Night. The crisp autumn air, the crackle of a bonfire, and of course, those sticky toffee apples!

That’s exactly where the inspiration for our Candy Apple tea came from. 🍵

We wanted to capture a little of that familiar autumn feeling in a cup — something to enjoy as the evenings grow darker and the weather turns colder.

What’s your favourite Bonfire Night memory? 🎆

The trick to a lovely iced matcha latte? Start with smooth matcha. 💚🍵

Making your own at home is surprisingly simple, and watching that vibrant green matcha swirl through the milk might just be our favourite part!

Here’s how we make ours:

🍵 2g Japanese Barista Matcha
💧 40ml warm water (around 80°C)
🧊 A glass of ice
🥛 Your favourite milk

Whisk the matcha with the warm water until smooth, then pour it over your iced milk. That’s it!

We’re using our Japanese Barista Matcha (Matcha Kaori), specially selected for making delicious matcha lattes.

Are you still enjoying iced matcha in the colder months, or have you switched to hot drinks? 🍂

Not all green tea is green. 🤎🍵

Meet hojicha — Japanese green tea that’s been roasted, giving it its distinctive brown colour and wonderfully warm, nutty, toasted flavour.

During our travels through Japan, we had the chance to roast hojicha ourselves, and it was an experience we couldn’t wait to share.

Now we’re bringing a little of that inspiration home with our Japanese Hojicha Powder. Perfect for a comforting hot latte or a refreshing iced one.

Have you tried hojicha before, or would this be your first cup?

Three Japanese teas — but which one is right for you? 🍵

They might all come from Japan, but each offers a very different tea experience.

🤎 Hojicha Powder — Warm, nutty and wonderfully roasted. A lovely choice if you enjoy comforting, toasty flavours, especially in a latte.

💚 Matcha Kaori (Barista Matcha) — Vibrant Japanese matcha, selected for making smooth, delicious hot or iced lattes.

🍵 Ceremonial Grade Matcha — For those who enjoy the more traditional experience of whisking matcha with water and appreciating its delicate, complex flavour.

And for those who love beautiful tea packaging, we also have our premium tins.

Which one sounds most like your cup of tea?

Learning what really makes matcha so special 🍵
From slowly grinding tencha into matcha with a traditional stone mill to whisking our own bowl, this workshop gave us a whole new appreciation for the craftsmanship behind every cup.
And yes... the matcha ice cream tasted even better with the matcha we’d ground ourselves.
