English Peppermint Tea Pyramids - 15 Bags
A wonderfully bright, invigorating, award-winning tea, which showcases English peppermint at its purest – a taste that’s been lost for generations. Peppermint loses its intensity after drying so, using our own secret recipe, we’ve reintroduced the barrel-aged peppermint oil to the dried leaves, creating a bolder tea with an intensely crisp, cleansing flavour. And we’ve captured the loose-leaf tea in biodegradable, pyramid-shaped bags, giving them more room to steep.

If you’re into discovering British food producers of the finest quality, allow us to introduce Summerdown.
Nicknamed “The Peppermint People”, they grow, harvest and distil award-winning peppermint, pouring the oil into a range of products – from cooling bath soaks to velvety chocolates. In fact, they’re the only peppermint chocolate producers in the UK to grow their own mint.
The family-run Summerdown farm is based in Hampshire. It’s here that 100 acres of Black Mitcham mint grows. Once native to the UK, this variety was reintroduced to English soil once again by Summerdown founder Sir Michael Colman.
As well as the origin and ultra invigorating, fresh flavour of this special mint, what’s remarkable about Summerdown is their approach to farming. They take the utmost care in being good to the planet and strive to be regenerative. That looks like keeping soil nutrient rich and healthy; helping habitats like hedgerows and local wildlife flourish; and keeping the farm carbon neutral.
Summerdown is big on collaboration when it comes to their environmental work. They’re partnered with Plantlife, a charity dedicated to conserving wild plants and fungi in their natural habitats. The farm is also signed up to the government’s Countryside Stewardship programme and is involved in environmental research initiatives. Plus, like many of our brand partners, they’re part of the B Corp community.
