Why Suki Tea is the Brew You Deserve
Discover the difference of loose leaf tea, lovingly made and packed with flavour and benefits.
A Whole Leaf, Whole Experience
At Suki Tea, we’re passionate about doing tea properly. That starts with loose leaf tea – a more natural, flavourful, and sustainable choice. Unlike the crushed dust you often find in supermarket tea bags, we use unbroken, whole leaves, carefully handpicked from the best tea regions in the world.
Why Whole Leaves Matter:
- Richer flavour and colour: Whole leaves have space to unfurl and swirl in the water, releasing complex, layered taste and a vibrant colour.
- Higher in antioxidants and essential oils: Less processing means more of the natural goodness is preserved.
- A more mindful ritual: Brewing loose leaf tea is slower – but better. It gives you the chance to slow down and savour your moment.
Better Tea Starts at the Source
We don’t compromise on quality. Every leaf in a cup of Suki Tea is:
- Handpicked with care during peak growing seasons.
- Processed in small batches to preserve freshness and flavour.
- Packed sustainably, using recycled materials that help maintain quality.
Compare this to the machine-processed, mass-produced teas found in most shops, and the difference is clear – in taste, aroma, and integrity.
Longer Shelf Life, Less Waste
Thanks to their size and quality, loose tea leaves enjoy a longer shelf life – up to two years when stored correctly.
To get the best from your tea:
- Store in a non-transparent, airtight container
- Keep it separate from other teas to preserve the unique aroma
- Avoid heat and humidity
Lower-grade supermarket teas, full of broken bits and dust, often go stale quickly. With Suki, freshness lasts.
Brew It Your Way
Loose leaf tea gives you control:
- Like it strong? Use a bit more or steep it longer.
- Want to get more from your brew? Most Suki teas can be infused multiple times.
And let’s not forget the joy in the process. Taking 10 minutes to prepare and enjoy a cup is a small, daily act of self-care. Plus, you can see what you’re drinking – no hidden additives or mystery dust here.
Nothing Wasted – Even After the Last Sip
Finished your cuppa? Don’t bin those leaves! Loose leaf tea is a natural product and incredibly versatile:
Reuse Your Tea Leaves:
- Compost booster: Adds nitrogen and improves soil health.
- Natural plant fertiliser: Especially great for acid-loving plants like roses.
- Home cleaning helper: Cuts grease and deodorises fridges, bins, and carpets.
- Skincare & bathing: Add to your bath for a skin-loving soak or use in DIY beauty treatments.
Because Suki Tea is non-perishable before brewing, our supply chain creates very little waste. And with these reuse tips, you can make your tea go even further.
