About

THISTLE & SPRIG TEA CO. 

 We are a premium, artisan tea company crafting flavorful and inspired loose leaf blends. We ethically-source our teas, herbs and spices, blend them in small batches, and package them with care in eco-friendly, plastic-free materials.

Our mission is to provide our customers with the most pure, flavorful ingredients possible and invoke a connection with nature in each cup.

SUSTAINABILITY MATTERS

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 (and the spent tea leaves of course) are fully backyard compostable, made of a natural biodegradable cellulose; and our tin labels are 100% post-consumer waste (PCW). 

We are looking at ways to expand our packaging options and hope to add refill pouches without the tea tin as well as different sizes of tea in compostable pouches to our online store. 

To steep your loose leaf teas, we offer teaware primarily made from sustainable materials, including stainless steel, glass and bamboo. 

We recycle and compost in our operations, and try to make it easy for you to as well! 

PLANT-BASED TEAS THAT NOURISH

We exclusively use ethically-sourced ingredients (such as direct-trade, certified organic, local/naturally-grown, and/or wildcrafted) that are natural, fresh and as close to the original plant state as possible. We do not use artificial flavors, sweeteners, preservatives, or GMOs. Instead we choose food-grade botanical extracts, which do not contain chemical additives like propylene glycol. Additionally, we use a limited list of ingredients so our teas are naturally free of gluten, dairy, corn, nuts, sugar, and animal products.
