We will soon be stocking rare, ancient and wild tea from some of China's most hidden and traditionally managed tea estates. These teas are a complete treat! Get them whilst we still have them!

Not ready to ditch your tea bag yet? Don't worry! You can still drink the best loose leaf tea - all you need is one of these 'do-it-yourself' tea bags. Just pop in the tea and flip over the seal.

Let us know if you would like us to send you some with your tea when you order!

"In 2007, the UN Children's children fund, UNICEF, found that hunger, disease and child exploitation were a problem even on apparently successful plantations that sell tea to high-end customers.... the people (living on the tea estates) are among the most marginalised in India...They have fallen off the radar".

India's huge tea estates traditionally provide for all their workers' needs - including medical care and education. When they close, the results can be disastrous.

Most tea workers in tea gardens across India are paid absurdly low wages (as low as 11 HKD a day). This includes tea plantations that claim to be organic and certified as FairTrade. These low wages can lead to social unrest, slave labour and human trafficking.

At BOLO we work directly with tea plantations that offer good wages to their workers, and that have a welfare system in place that helps to provide money towards the worker's pension and health care. On top of this we offer a percentage of the buying price of the teas separately to these farms to help them increase the wages for their hired workers.

Our ethical policy helps to support and save lives in local rural communities in India.

We are part of a revolution.

Come join us.

We now stock rooibos (original, chai, green) and wild mountain honeybush which has come directly to us from a small organic farm in the Cedarberg Mountain region in South Africa.
Rooibos is naturally caffeine free, tannin free (so it never gets bitter), has a host of health benefits and is full of antioxidants. Get some while we still have it!
