Our buyers have spent years studying indigenous and cultivated varieties of tea plants in gardens throughout Southeast Asia to perfect our English Breakfast black tea. The result is a full-bodied, awakening blend boasting a rich red infusion color, malty flavor and hints of currants and caramel. English Breakfast is designed to be smooth and balanced on its own, yet bold enough to stand up to milk and honey. Each year we taste the harvest in our Cupping Room to recalibrate the blend based on seasonal variance. It's a highly caffeinated affair.

Independently Owned since 1997, Rishi us the vanguard source of direct trade tea and botanicals. We are selectors, importers and makers.

Direct Trade 

Our Practice of Direct Trade is not just a romance story or marketing gimmick; it is the very foundation of our quality control program. Our travel and hands-on work with farmers allows us to verify where, when and how our organic teas are grown and to offer traceability on each lot back to the farm.

Health & Wellness The reverence and study of plants is at the core of our identity. We believe that health and wellness begins in the garden and kitchen. Crafted for both function and flavor, our tea and botanical blends are created to be the pillar of your pursuit for balance.
