For us, tea is more than just a drink. It’s a way to calm down, to wake up, to spark an idea, to share a story...

Our own story started in 1706. That’s when Thomas Twining first set up shop on London’s Strand. In the age of coffee shops, he was the man who loved tea and worked hard to bring it to the people.

More than 300 years later, the passion’s still there – and so are we. We still sell tea from Thomas’s shop, and we still work hard to bring new blends to tea lovers. Now we have over 100 varieties, and our teas are drunk all over the world.

True to Thomas Twining’s exacting standards, we only blend the finest tea from the finest tea gardens. Our expert blenders – and we’ve got more of them than any other company – taste more than 3,000 cups of tea every week. So you can be sure the next cup you taste will be every bit as good as the one yesterday or the day before.
