Invest in your wellbeing, every day

Your monthly tea subscription helps you take healthy time out for yourself, and make that a habit every day. It offers you a regular invitation to feel restored, calm and centered.  It's not only the nutrient content of tea that is good for you, the simple act of preparing and drinking good tea is a grounding experience. 

We believe investing in your wellbeing is not a luxury; it's smart and, these days, it's a necessity.

Note: the cardboard box now differs from the one in the video. See the images above.

What you receive with your subscription

In the first week of every month, you’ll receive a box with two different specialty teas, (see below for this month's teas). Every tea is tasted and chosen by our founder, Certified Tea Master Anna Kydd.

If you’re a regular tea-drinker, drinking 1-2 cups a day, the quantity of tea (2 x 20g pouches) will last you around half the month (each pouch yields a minimum of 14 cups if you steep the same leaves twice). Your first box comes with our tea guide to help you steep and taste your teas. If you want to add teaware to your first box, see the bottom of the page for a bundle offer.  

We focus on high-quality, small-batch teas. Each month, we choose one darker-style tea (dark, black or highly-oxidised oolong) and one lighter-style tea (lightly-oxidised oolong, green, yellow or white). So there should always be one tea that suits your taste buds, plus another to help you experience a new flavour. 

Who is the subscription for? 

If you consider yourself a 'foodie'; if you are curious and love trying new flavours or taking part in food and beverage tastings; and if you are interested in learning more about tea, then our tea subscription is perfect for you.

With specialty tea, the flavours you experience may be different to what you are used to. So, when you drink it, you will have a wonderful experience if you are curious and choose to adopt an adventurous palette. If you love the comfort of your tea tasting the same each time, your best option is to stick to your normal tea brand rather than join our subscription.  

Timing

Your first box is charged and delivered right away. All subsequent boxes are charged on the 1st of each month, then put on the courier the next working day.

Tea knowledge

We believe that knowledge is powerful; that discovering and learning about different types of tea will give you a more enriching experience. By purchasing the monthly subscription box you give us permission to add your email address to our mailing list, so Anna can send you information about your teas each month. Please let us know if you wish to opt-out. 

Questions?

If you'd like to ask Anna anything about the subscription box before you sign up, she'd love to hear from you! Email her at anna@theteacurator.co.nz

In our July 2025 box:

Bukit Sari Silver Needles
White tea, Indonesia - organic
Flavour: floral & sweet, light & delicate
From the soft, downy buds to the delicate, sweet infusion, this tea is a sensory treat. It is made up entirely of young leaf buds that are individually plucked by hand before they unfurl. They are then simply dried in the sun. When infused, they release a subtle and sweet lemony fragrance. The body is super soft, with notes of honey suckle and raw sugar. April 2025 harvest.  

Bukit Sari Imperial Black
Black tea, Indonesia - organic

Flavour: fruit, malt, chocolate - silky-soft
Bukit Sari’s Imperial Black tea is carefully harvested by hand then slowly withered, gently rolled, fully oxidized and dried. The leaves infuse into an amber-coloured liquor that releases a gorgeous sweet, floral and fruity fragrance. When you sip, the liquor feels soft in your mouth, releasing subtle but decadent notes of blackberries, orange and malt with a delicate chocolate aftertaste. March 2025 harvest.

Surrounded by conservation forest, Bukit Sari tea garden sits at an altitude of 1150 – 1350m in the remote highlands of West Java, Indonesia. The garden has been certified organic since 2007 and is committed to bio-diversity and sustainable farming. Certified organic by USDA.
