What arrives.

What arrives.

Five whole-leaf teas, hand-picked for the season. Around 75 cups a box at about 27p a cup, with enough in every pouch to brew it twice.

Every box fits through the letterbox, so it is waiting for you when you get home. The first one is bigger, because your teapot or cold-brew bottle comes with it.

The teas make the moments: one to slow you down, one to wake you up, one for when a friend sits down at your table.

One loose leaf tea subscription box. Every brand we carry.

Yes, choose Green Tea, Caffeine-Free, Fruity Tea, or let us Surprise you. Change your preference anytime from your account.

Can I cancel my tea subscription at any time?

Yes. Skip, pause or cancel anytime from your account. No calls to make, no one to convince.

What happens if I don’t like a tea in my box?

Tell us within 14 days, and we credit back to your Boteane account. One tea per box, up to three times in any rolling 12-month period.

What teas are in the Boteane tea subscription box?

Five loose-leaf teas each month: whole leaf, whole fruit, whole flowers, real herbs and spices, hand-picked from every brand we carry.

Can I skip a delivery without cancelling my tea subscription?

Yes, skip any month on your account and pick your subscription back up straight away whenever you’re ready.

How many cups of tea do you get in a subscription box?

Around 75 cups a box from five teas. Most will brew twice, so it goes further. About 27p a cup for the tea.

More questions
How much does the Boteane tea subscription cost?

£29 for your Welcome Box, which brings five teas and your teapot or cold-brew bottle. Then £22.50 a month, delivery included, with no minimum term.

Does the tea subscription come with a free gift?

Yes, a teapot or cold-brew bottle worth £32, included with your Welcome Box. Yours to keep.

How do I brew loose-leaf tea?

One teaspoon per cup. Water just off the boil for black and herbal, a little cooler for green. Three minutes, five if you like it stronger. Every Boteane packet carries its own brew time and a hot or cold symbol.

How long does the subscription delivery take in the UK?

Your Welcome Box ships within 1 to 3 working days, then takes 3 to 5 days in the post, so allow about a week in total. Then a new box arrives every month.

Is UK delivery free on the tea subscription?

Delivery is included in the price. Your Welcome Box is £29 with delivery covered, and the £22.50 a month includes £2.50 delivery. Nothing extra at checkout.

Is Boteane’s tea subscription vegan and available with caffeine-free options?

Yes, every box is vegan, and Caffeine-Free is one of the four taste options if you’d rather skip the caffeine.

What does the Discovery Flavour Promise cover?

One opened tea per box, where the flavour simply is not for you. Tell us within 14 days of delivery and we credit back to your Boteane account, up to three times in any rolling 12-month period. The full terms live at Flavour Promise terms.

Is a tea subscription worth it?

The Welcome Box is £29 and brings five whole-leaf teas, your teapot or cold-brew bottle (worth £32) and delivery. After that it is £22.50 a month, delivery included: around 75 cups a box, about 27p a cup for the tea, and most of the teas will brew twice. There is no minimum term, so you can stop whenever you like.

Can I give a tea subscription as a gift?

Yes. Choose three, six or twelve months, paid once at checkout. It never renews and the recipient is never asked for payment. Add a message and we tuck it in with the first box.

Do you deliver to Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands?

Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are all covered by UK delivery, at the same price as England. The Channel Islands are quoted at our European rates at checkout.

When am I charged?

Your first payment of £29 is taken at checkout. After that you are charged £22.50 monthly on the same date, and each payment ships that month’s box. You can skip, pause or cancel from your account before the next charge.

Is the tea organic?

Some are, and where a tea is certified organic we say so on its product page. Worth knowing that organic certification is about how a tea is grown, not how it tastes. Every tea we carry is chosen for flavour first, and all of them are sourced through Fairtrade, the Rainforest Alliance and the Ethical Tea Partnership.

Is the packaging plastic free or recyclable?

The outer box your teas arrive in is recyclable at home. The pouches are not household recyclable, but most large supermarkets have collection points that take them.

How much caffeine is in each tea?

Every tea carries a caffeine marker on its product page, alongside one for its antioxidant qualities, so you can see where it sits before you choose. Caffeine-Free is one of the four taste options if you would rather skip it altogether.

What is the best loose leaf tea subscription in the UK?

Boteane’s Discovery Membership is £29 for your Welcome Box, which brings five loose-leaf teas and a teapot or cold-brew bottle worth £32, yours to keep. Then £22.50 a month, delivery included, with no minimum term. Around 75 cups a box, at about 27p a cup for the tea.

Most tea subscriptions are one tea brand sending out its own range, so you get one blender’s palate over and over. We’re a shop, so your five come from across every brand we carry: matcha, iced teas, traditional blends, botanicals and our own. That’s discovery rather than delivery.

If one isn’t to your taste, tell us within 14 days and the Discovery Flavour Promise credits it back. So you can try the tea you’d never have chosen for yourself.

What if I have a food allergy or intolerance?

We can’t guarantee any tea we sell is free from allergens. Nuts are present in the same factory and preparation areas, and in some of our teas. Every tea has its own product page listing the ingredients, allergens in capitals, so when a box arrives you can look each tea up before you brew. If you have an allergy or intolerance, read our Food Information and Allergens page before you subscribe, or ask us first: info@boteane.co, 0333 339 9947.
