About us
Named in The Sunday Times as one of the Best Places to Work, we are a B Corp Certified, independent, award winning tea company on a mission to spread happiness & reimagine tea! We're tea mixology experts and with over 100 blends, special seasonal teas & matcha on our famous Tea Wall it's easy to see why our customers have described us as Tea Magicians! Tea is our TEAm’s passion so whether you’re browsing our D2C website, chatting with us on social media or popping into the store, we’re here to help you explore the magical world of tea! Co-Founders Krisi & Mike set up the company at the age of 23 after returning from Canada where they had been working as ski instructors and where the idea for Bird & Blend was born. From day one they put sustainability high on their priority list and this has not changed. We keep people & the planet at the forefront of our decision making and Krisi & Mike went from packing tea in their back bedroom to having 180+ staff, 18 stores (and counting!) across the UK and a thriving international online store. Bird & Blend is leading the way in tea innovation in the UK! We are actively looking to grow the wholesale and B2B arm of Bird & Blend and we're open to new opportunities to partner and collaborate. Please get in touch with us!

We love a retail masterclass. 🧡✨ For us, that's just sharing our passion for our tea blends & helping customers to find their besTEA from our tea wall. Thanks so much for coming in and sharing your experience Julie! #birdandblendtea
Hats off to Bird & Blend Tea Co. B Corp for a retail masterclass. Took a reluctant relative in-store and in the space of 5 minutes they'd converted him from a tea hater to a Bird & Blend enthusiast. How did they do it... proactive and passionate staff backed by a smart store layout and plentiful free samples to demonstrate the tea experience, all underscored by a fantastic product. If you love retail and haven't been in a branch they're worth checking out.
