Steenbergs has spent more than 20 years blending organic teas, herbs and spices with care, craft and conscience. Already voted the number one choice for ethical consumers by The Ethical Consumer Society, their loose leaf teas are now dressed in new packaging that feels every bit as thoughtful as what's inside: illustrated designs inspired by British wildlife, hedgerows, moorlands and meadows.
It's a look that perfectly matches the brand's ethos – sustainability, purity and a deep connection to nature – while celebrating one of life's simplest pleasures: a really good brew.
The refreshed collection includes 20 of Steenbergs' best-loved teas, with plenty for herbal tea fans alongside classics like Organic English Breakfast and Earl Grey. Every blend is still created and hand-blended in rural North Yorkshire, using carefully sourced organic ingredients – nothing rushed, nothing overcomplicated, just tea done properly.
“Tea has always been part of the Steenbergs story,” says founder and co-owner Axel Steenberg. “Our journey began through our spice growers, where spices are often grown as shade trees on tea plantations. Over time, that connection grew into a full tea range rooted in craftsmanship and respect for nature. This new packaging helps us tell that story more clearly, from the landscape that inspires us to the leaves in your cup.”

Steenbergs' top tips for a truly lovely (and ethical) brew
Because great tea deserves a little care:
- Start with good quality loose leaf tea – it really does make all the difference.
- Store your tea somewhere cool and dry, away from strong smells.
- Always use fresh water to properly wake up the leaves and release their flavour.
- If you live in a hard water area, a water filter can help your tea taste its best.
- Use the right temperature: 90–98°C for black tea, around 80°C for green tea.
- Only boil your water once – reboiled water loses oxygen (and flavour).
- Measure carefully: one rounded teaspoon per cup.
- Let the tea steep for the recommended time and enjoy the moment before you pour.
Slow down, put the kettle on, and let Britain's landscapes do the talking, one cup at a time.
