Our team

The people behind the leaf.

Three generations on the same hills, plus a small team in the city who keep your orders moving. None of it works without all of it.

From the founder

My grandfather planted the first bushes on these slopes when the country was barely twenty. We've been a tea family ever since. Tearoots is what happens when you stop sending the best of it to auction and start selling it straight from the source.

Hello from

The faces behind your tea.

    Founder · Garden

    Third generation on the slopes. Walks the bushes most mornings.

What we hold to.

01

Grow it ourselves. Sell it ourselves. No anonymous lots.

02

Pick at peak season. The leaf decides, not the calendar.

03

Pack for the cup, not the warehouse. Freshness over shelf life.

04

Tell you exactly how to brew it. The cup is the proof.
