One Leaf, Many Lives


Tea is a cup of life. ~anon

One of the things we love at ATTIC, is when people suddenly after years, decades even, of living in a world of standard teabags, get really excited about tea.

As if opening the pantry cupboard to suddenly discover a portal into a magical new world, where tea leaves come in various shades of green, black, brown and golden. Where they are not ground to dust, but are free to roam, unfurl and expand without the restraints of mesh bags and bits of string that keep falling into them, singing and dancing happily…

By setting up a tea business, it’s clear that tea is quite important to us, but it was special enough for us to want to allow it to shape our livelihood, and essentially, our lives.

Tea is a vast and exciting world, (even if the singing and dancing is only metaphorical), and that’s what we love about it at ATTIC. There’s always more to learn and discover, and we want to share this enthusiasm and excitement with the world!

Over the next few months, we’ll be publishing a series of blog posts called ‘One Leaf, Many Lives’, about what we feel makes tea so special, and how it forms an integral part of our lives in ways we may not have ever considered, or given credit to.

Look out for our first post at the beginning of June to coincide with our Newsletter, where we’ll be looking at the health benefits of tea, not just for the body, but also the mind and soul.

We hope you enjoy them!
