Quick and efficient delivery

The service was great and delivered quickly.
However the Keemun tea is not like it used to be or as it appears on your website. I don’t find the large leaves like your Kemun tea used to be. Tastes very similar but visually slightly different.
We also used to receive a sample of different teas before Keemun was difficult to get, but now no samples. I would like to try a sample of Matcha but not pay the prices for 100g.

Hello, Jenny

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're glad to hear that you were pleased with our fast delivery and overall service!

We haven't made any changes to our supplier or sourcing for our Chinese Keemun tea, so the quality and leaf standard remain consistent. However, because tea is a natural product, subtle variations in leaf size can occasionally occur between harvests, and we really appreciate you bringing the visual difference to our attention.

Regarding samples, we still love offering them and continue to include a complimentary sample with every order over £30.00. Additionally, if you're interested in trying our Matcha without committing to a full 100g caddy, we offer individual single sachets on our website specifically designed for trying it out first.

Thank you again for being a valued customer and for sharing your thoughts with us, happy brewing!

Many thanks,
The Tea Makers of London

I ordered a canister of camomile and rooibos tea. The initial purchase was easy but unfortunately I had an issue with the delivery. I contacted The Tea Makers costumer service and they were fantastic. Chased up my delivery and then ultimately sent a replacement.
Upon arrival the canisters looked very smart and beautifully presented. Inside the camomile smelt incredible and tasted so much fuller than any teabag I have ever had. The rooibos was equally as well presented and I cannot wait to try it.
Thank you so much. Excellent service for start to finish, with a product worth waiting for.

We also sincerely appreciate your patience regarding the initial delivery issue. While we always hope for a seamless shipping experience, we are so glad our customer service team was able to step in quickly, and send out a replacement to make things right.

I had a query as I'd got muddled up with wether I had a subscription as I started another one and panicked about getting a tea tsunami ! They were very helpful and cancelled the first subscription on setting up the new one. I received my first delivery in good time and it was well packaged. The sencha tea is really good; so very much better than t-bags from the supermarket. And, you only need a small amount to make a refreshing mug of lovely green tea.

We pride ourselves on offering an authentic, flavourful experience, so hearing that a small amount goes such a long way towards making the perfect brew is fantastic.

Thank you for choosing us, and please do not hesitate to reach out if you ever need help with your subscription in the future. Happy brewing!

Just Great!

I had this tea for the first time in a little boutique cafe. It was so nice that I asked them what tea it was. After that I had to order some. I've placed several orders now and have a subscription set up too. Each time the order arrives within a day or 2. Great item and service.

Excellent tea and excellent service.

I purchased a number of different teas from The Tea Makers of London. The tea is high quality, it’s not the cheapest, but the quality stands out when you drink their tea. The service is prompt. I tend to purchase Long Jing Tea - which is beautiful. I drink this in the evening when I want to slow down and appreciate what I am drinking. I have also purchase Jasmine Pearls - this is very good. I am experimenting with oriental Beauty Oolong tea currently. Because the tea is high quality it’s worth brewing the tea correctly. They also enjoy reusing the tea leaves 1-2 more times.

Hello, Dean

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are thrilled to hear that you are enjoying the quality of our teas and that our service has met your expectations.

It is wonderful to know that our Long Jing tea has become a peaceful part of your evening routine, and we are delighted that the Jasmine Pearls and Oriental Beauty Oolong are living up to your standards. You make an excellent point about the brewing process, investing a little extra care into the preparation truly unlocks the complex flavours of loose-leaf tea. We are also glad you are getting the most out of your leaves by enjoying multiple infusions, which is a fantastic way to experience how the flavour profile evolves with each steep.

Thank you again for your support and for being a part of our community. Happy brewing!
