🏛️ 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.

✨ 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!

August Deaf Black Tea

I have been a serious tea drinker for my whole life. So honestly I am a tea snob. 😂To make matters even more complicated I drink decaf. I can honestly say I am hooked on August tea. They live up to all the promises they make. More tea per bag. Real tea leaves not dust. Great flavor. Many thanks for my new best tea company.

Good Black Tea

This is what I've been waiting to buy. Most decaffeinated black tea is wimpy or just doesn't taste good. This is the tea I need, especially if I want to add flavoring syrups. August Uncommon used to have unmarked tins for storing loose teas. Can I still order those?

Underwhelming

Disappointed in the flavor, seems very week. I want to love your products but not happy with this or the cardamon jasmine tea previously bought.
