Y’all.

We work our tails off to ensure that we source our ingredients responsibly. We work by direct trade to ensure fewer degrees of separation between you and the tea you’re drinking. After all that we do to ensure that we take care of people and the land, it would kind of suck to stop there and call it a day. So we try to do the right thing with our packaging, too.

We do something that very few tea companies do — we don’t use any plastic in our packaging.

Our extra-large tea sachets not only pack more flavor than your average tea bag, but they’re also made from 100% compostable, non-toxic PLA.

Wh-what? PLA is short for polylactic acid, but don’t let the name scare you. PLA is a vegetable-based material that mimics petroleum-based plastic.

To get specific, our bags are made from a woven mesh called Soilon, a PLA derived from corn starch (to be clear, it doesn’t actually contain corn — you can read about it here). It’s completely biodegradable, and it’s a safe, non-toxic material that’s perfect for filtering tea and herbal infusions without any icky chemicals leaching into your drink.

Plus, PLA is 100% compostable by municipal composters!

Don’t know about you, but all that talking has us thirsty. How bout some tea?
