We started selling tea out of a tiny trailer at farmers’ markets and street fairs, pouring just one blend—our world famous Cup of Sunshine—for anyone who would listen to us talk about the healing powers of turmeric.
Big Heart Tea Co. blends herbal tisanes (fancy word for herbal tea) inspired by Ayurveda, an ancient Indian holistic healing system, over 5,000 years old, focused on balancing the body, mind, and spirit through simple everyday lifestyle practices. We like to say we’re on a covert mission to help people feel good—by sneaking healing herbs into your everyday cup and making them taste really, really good.
We believe herbs, flowers, spices, and tea bring the flavor to every party they attend. They’re fun and loud, caring and nurturing, and full of the best stories—yet they’re rarely given the chance to show just how friendly (and powerful) they really are. So here we are, giving plants the spotlight.
Our mission is simple: to make healing herbs and teas more accessible and fun. We don’t take ourselves too seriously—but we mean serious business.
Every step of our supply chain is thoughtfully vetted, so you’re not just getting the best-tasting tea in the world (according to us)—you’re getting the best tea for the world. That means no added flavors or colors, direct or transparent sourcing whenever possible, and packaging made from plants, not plastic.
“We want our customers to drink healing tea that comes from a place of health—where the land and the farm workers are respected throughout the entire life of the ingredient.”
