What sets Two Leaves and a Bud apart? The tea! You’ll taste the difference and so will your customers. That’s because we use quality ingredients, as opposed to blending teas masked with flavoring. We source organic, fairly traded teas because sustainability matters to us, just like it does to your customers. Innovative, eco-friendly and beautiful packaging. Our transparent sleeves let you see the quality whole leaf tea inside. Personal attention and support. Our team is experienced, kind, and accessible. We’ll set you up quickly and easily with the perfect tea program for your business, and then work with you to grow your tea sales. Our goal is to make great tea simple, profitable and enjoyable. Our passion is connecting tea lovers with the teas they love and introducing new tea drinkers to truly great tea. At Two Leaves and a Bud, we take tea - and your business - personally.
Truly great tea is hard to come by. It requires rich flavor with complexity and nuance. It balances sweetness and astringency. It is a labor of love: Every season’s new tea brings variances in cup color, flavor, depth, intensity, all of which need to be cupped and assessed. Most of all, truly great tea requires the kind of passion we have for our favorite beverage. I started Two Leaves and a Bud in 2004 after traveling extensively in Asia for business where I became passionate about tea. I was confounded by not finding that same quality tea back at home. So I went to the tea gardens in Sri Lanka. I started from the source, building relationships slowly, over the years. We’ve been raising the standards of tea drinkers ever since, making it simple for you and your customers to drink truly great tea in every iteration. Try a quickbrewing, strong “builder’s tea” like Paisley English Breakfast, or explore the nuanced depth of a Two Leaves and a Bud whole leaf tea sachet. Our loose tea offerings can make every cuppa’ a special occasion, and our Reserve Series of seasonal, limited edition teas from the world’s finest gardens just ups the ante even further. Our independent tea company is based in a small mountain town in Colorado. When you call us, you’ll get a team member on the phone because we want the best for your tea program and your customers. At Two Leaves and a Bud we take tea, and your business, personally. I hope you will join in our endeavor to bring truly great teas to tea drinkers, one cup at a time.
Cheers! Two Leaves and a Bud is an independent tea company named for the top two leaves and bud of the tea plant
(Camellia sinensis) plucked to make the world’s best tea. Richard Rosenfeld Founder / CEO
