Information and Inspiration
One Cup of Tea at A Time
Created by a Tea Sommelier
We believe in being unapologetic - some might even say “uppity” - about our love of tea, interest in collective well-being, and desire to purchase tea from brands that reflect our values. The UppiTea Experience is a platform to uplift those who find comfort in the art of tea.
