Thistle & Sprig Tea Company is a premium, artisan tea company crafting flavorful and inspired loose leaf blends. We handcraft our teas in small batches with sustainably grown herbs, spices and flowers, and source our ingredients from family run farms with strong social and environmental standards.
Our mission is to provide our customers with the most pure, flavorful ingredients possible and invoke a connection with nature in each cup.
We practice direct trade by purchasing directly from growers who embrace environmentally and socially aware business practices.
What does this mean? We source from:
small-hold growers and cooperatives, as opposed to conglomerate plantations
small- to medium-scale,
privately held, family farm operations
including those practicing organic, biodynamic, and wildharvesting methods
We strive to limited our environmental impacts and choose eco-friendly materials and processes whenever possible.
We exclusively use eco-friendly packaging for our teas: our tins are fully recyclable at the curbside and are also easily reusable; the tin liners and sealing sticker (as well as spent tea leaves) are fully backyard compostable, made of a natural biodegradable cellulose; and our tin labels are produced using 100% post-consumer waste (PCW).
We also consistently recycle and compost in our operations.
Thistle & Sprig Tea Co. crafts tea blends that are all natural and as close to the original plant source as possible. We do not use artificial flavors, sweeteners, preservatives, propylene glycol or GMOs. Additionally, we use a limited list of ingredients so our teas are naturally free of gluten, dairy, corn, nuts, sugar, and animal products.
Our online tea store offers our signature line of conscientious, handcrafted tea blends.
