🏛️ About the Brand

August Essentials
Classic teas selected for exceptional flavor and uncompromising quality
🍂Why Our Tea Bags Are Better

More Flavor In Every Cup
The average tea bag has only 2 grams of tea per bag. Ours have 3.5 grams of tea. That's 60% more tea in every bag. More tea = more flavor.

The Best Ingredients
Our tea uses super premium whole ingredients including whole leaf tea, dried fruit and herbs, and whole spices. Our tea comes from traditional tea estates in the best growing regions on earth. It’s quality you can see, smell, and taste.

100% Plastic-free Tea Bags
Our tea bags are made of plant-based, non-gmo neosoilon mesh, so you don't have to worry about microplastics, bleach, or other harmful substances in your tea.
🍃 Dietary Needs

✨ Quality Tested

All our teas are double tested for pesticide residues, heavy metals, and foreign objects.

Because they’re blended in Germany, all August teas must pass stringent EU pesticide standards, which allow much less pesticide residue than the US FDA.

Whether they are organic, all natural or conventional, all our teas are safe, top quality, and delicious!

    One of my favorites

    I enjoy many teas from this company, but this is one of my absolute favorites. It has a big, full-bodied flavor that holds up well to a splash of milk when I want a little creamer flavor.
