We are an independent family-run tea business based in the South-East of England.
We have a great range of loose leaf teas, infusions and pyramid teabags. Our teas are of high quality, but fairly priced. We want our customers to fall in love with tea and have a tea 'experience' rather than just buying a tea blend. Look through our ranges, and try something different today. If you need some thing to brew it in then we also have a select range of teapots and accessories to suit all budgets.
We are able to blend bespoke teas for special events and businesses. If you are looking for a special tea that can't be found anywhere else then Rosie Lea Tea is the place to come.

I bought the literary love stories tea collection for a friend as a wedding gift, and it's perfect. Julie was brilliant and helped me to create an additional tube of tea named after the couple - amazing!

I’ve always had trouble sleeping and tried all various methods, this is by far the best product I’ve used, plus tastes amazing too! Truly zonked after a cup and is really relaxing.

Really refreshing cup of tea...great zesty flavours, and smell, that wasn't too overpowering. The tea tasted exactly as it smelled, which is not something you always get!

I bought two as gifts, this and the Game of Thrones one. They are so good! The perfect little charms, and the tea strainers are great quality.

Hi, my love of tea and in particular loose leaf tea has been lifelong, appreciating its fine qualities and flavours. My name is Julie and I run our small family business, based in the sleepy seaside town of Broadstairs, in Kent, England,
The reason we exist? Well this a brief outline: My Dad was a true "Teapot" in every sense, he was never without a cuppa in his hand! His family came from the East End of London, and were very much Cockneys, and my Nana always read the leaves in the bottom of the cup! All this helped to inspire me into starting our little English tea company; I lost my Dad to Parkinson's Disease back in 2010 and set up Rosie Lea Tea in his memory. If you aren’t familiar with Cockney Rhyming Slang then you may not know that Rosie Lea is rhyming slang for tea, ‘ Let’s have a lovely cup of Rosie’. it is not my name! One of our blends – My Dads Blend – was created to reflect my Dads sweet tooth.
Our highest priority is that all of our loose leaf tea and infusions are of a consistently high quality; we have a verifiable supply chain to make sure that our base teas are ethically sourced, and we reject any tea that does not meet our own high standards.
Our premises have been inspected for health and hygiene standards by the local council, accredited 5 stars, so you can be assured that we take the best possible care to get our teas to you in great shape.To ensure this even further, we package to order, this means that the tea will reach you in the freshest possible condition. None of our packs sit on dusty shelves for 6 months waiting for someone to purchase them!
We really care about our product and you our customers; as our blends are bespoke we will always listen to what you are asking for and if it is possible we will try and translate that into a new Rosie Lea blend.
We primarily sell through our online shop as well as carefully selected outlets.
Whether you are looking for a classic Earl Grey tea, a South African Rooibos, or a really different fruit tea, this is the place to look. With over 110 teas to choose from, we offer a great range of traditional to quirky tea choices and are sure there will be at least one you like!.
Our Literary Tea range has come on leaps and bounds in recent years, and we have a great range of brews inspired by the great authors and poets of our times, and these provide a great literary gift idea or set for fans of the written word. These innovations still hold the core principles of quality tea, hand blended and value for money as our main objectives.
