Tea with Tae makes premium, all-natural tea accessible through everyday rituals and meaningful gifts for every budget, from elegant mini tea tubes under $10 to full-size tea gift boxes at $50. We serve tea lovers, gift givers, retailers, and foodservice partners with third-party-tested ingredients, USDA Organic certified lines, and production in our SQF-certified facility. We obsess over every gift detail because our products mark important moments in people’s lives. That same care shapes our workplace, where above-market wages, thoughtful perks, autonomy, and opportunities to grow help our team thrive. We exist to make people feel good through the tea they drink, the gifts they share, and the work they do.

Tea has been part of my life since childhood, when I shared tea rituals with my mother, who has battled cancer throughout my life. Those moments taught me that a cup of tea is really more than just a cup of tea, but a way for us to connect with one another and make memories.

During the pandemic, I couldn’t find the tea gift I wanted to send a friend, so I created it: the Tea Bento Box. What began as a gift box subscription business grew as customers asked for their favorite teas in larger pouches and tins, eventually becoming Tea with Tae, a full-service tea company today.

My mission is to make premium tea accessible to everyone. To make that possible, my husband and I invested most of our savings in tea machines and brought manufacturing in-house. Today, we can produce more than 250,000 plastic-free tea bags a day.

From a commissary kitchen, we’ve grown into a warehouse with about 20 employees during the holiday season. Our teas are sold in more than 2,500 retail doors across all 50 states and eight countries, and we’re growing over 100% year over year. Through every stage, I’m driven by the same belief: premium tea should be accessible and a means for deepening relationships and forging lifelong memories.
