Balcony personally source and select the finest natural ingredients so you can enjoy the perfect cup of tea brimming with enchanting aromas and flavours.
We met up with Balcony Tea at the BBC Good Food Show in London and discovered this husband and wife team had already won three great Taste Awards for their teas.
"Balcony tea is inspired by our memories of a healthy and happy Mediterranean lifestyle. We both grew up in the Mediterranean region and have fond memories of collecting herbs in the sunny valleys surrounded by family.
These frequent trips gave us a detailed understanding of the flavours and health benefits that each herb contains.
We moved to the UK and have embraced the British tea culture but have also noticed the recent movement towards more adventurous infusions. We found ourselves constantly reminiscing about perfect evenings spent on our warm balconies in the Mediterranean sipping on the beautiful local teas. When we tried to re-create these Mediterranean memories we found that although you can buy teas from remote and exotic places there were hardly any infusions of Mediterranean origin. This is how Balcony Tea was born.
We promise to ethically source and select the finest Mediterranean ingredients, by working closely with small communities within our home region. This insures that the timeless knowledge of flavours and traditional therapeutic benefits of the Mediterranean are incorporated into every infusion."
