Genuine Tea

🍵 Adventure in Every Cup, Sourced with Heart

Genuine Tea is a Toronto-based brand built on a shared love of travel, culture, and exceptional loose leaf tea. Founded by David and Sarah—an Englishman and a Canadian who met at a ski resort in B.C.—their story is steeped in exploration. After spending nearly five years in Taiwan studying Mandarin and immersing themselves in the world of handcrafted teas, they came home to Canada with a mission: to make truly great tea more accessible and meaningful.

They work directly with farmers across Asia to source premium, ethically grown teas—highlighting unique harvests, elevations, and regions in every blend. By focusing on direct trade and transparency, Genuine Tea helps bridge the gap between tea drinkers and the passionate growers behind each leaf.

Whether you're new to loose leaf or a lifelong sipper, their curated collection of single-origin teas and creative blends invites you to taste the world, one cup at a time.
