Ethical Credentials

Outstanding Tea In A Socially Responsible Way

We are dedicated to a long term commitment to creating absolutely perfect tasting tea but we also work hard to ensure that all our teas are sustainably sourced in a manner which respects both the environment and our tea producers and, for this reason, we are a long standing member of the Ethical Tea Partnership.

In 2006, we introduced Fairtrade Teas to our foodservice range and in 2009 we began offering Rainforest Alliance certified leaf teas. All our Birchall black teas carry the Green Frog Seal. This means they are certified by the Rainforest Alliance and grown in a way that helps protect the environment and farm workers and their families.
