🏛️ 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.

✨ 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!

This is my 2nd favorite!

I love this Earl Grey, I have tried many over the years and have been left disappointed. This one exceeded my expectations. I ordered because you were out of my hubbys' favorite (English Breakfast/Black) so I thought he could try it. He likes it too so that just means now I have to order more to share!

Another Essential Favorite

My Mom was an Earl Grey lover, and so I became one, too. I have tried umpteen versions, but this one has quickly become my all-time favorite. Another one my friends also enjoy when they visit. I wish it came in larger quantities!

It's a good tea

They are quite expensive and something I might only buy on a special occasion. They are good tasting and the cost per tea is acceptable but by the time shipping and tax are added in, it literally doubles if not triples the cost. I paid it one time to see if the hype was worth cost. If I could buy them locally, I probably would, but to add the extras (tax and shipping), no. Just my opinion.

Earl Grey Organic

What a loose leaf tea should be. Tea in bags tends to be more towards powder. This tea has the appearance of premium tea - long strands of teas with a great taste. Highly recommended.
