How it Began...

Bird & Blend was set up and run by Krisi and Mike, who met whilst studying Politics (of all things!) at university.  They started off packing tea in their bedroom and attending markets. Building Bird & Blend from scratch while staying true to their ethos and values has been Krisi and Mike’s passion. Now with an awesome team, multiple retail stores & a thriving international online store, Bird & Blend is leading the way in tea innovation in the UK.

What Our Communitea Has To Say...

“What a wonderful company this is. Colourful stocks of tea, quirky and practical tea accessories. Fast, efficient service with some wonderful humour to boot. Cannot fault this lovely business :)”

Mrs Thomas, Trustpilot

“This company has some of the best customer service I've ever seen. The deliveries with handwritten notes saying hi, the fast delivery and their free samples of the super delicious tea they make is fab."

Steph C, Trustpilot

“These guys are wonderful, with such amazing quality teas. I ordered online and mentioned I am a medical student. They gave me a free box of tea to share with my team on the wards. Thank you Bird & Blend!”

Kiana - Trustpilot

PSST, WEREN'T YOU CALLED BLUEBIRD TEA CO.?

Yes, we started life out as Bluebird Tea Co. but in May 2018 we evolved our name to Bird & Blend Tea Co. We won't bore you with the long version (if you'd like the full story click here) but long story short, we are the same fab people, same awesome tea blends, just under a different name!
