Sustainable tea farming

At Humming Cup we proudly serve the highest quality tea, sourced from all over the world! It is our mission to offer you the most premium tea available on the market today. Founded on a passion for the finest tea, we are dedicated to the unique place that tea drinking commands at the heart of daily life.

 

Our Core values:

Reliable source. Our teas do not contain any harmful conventional pesticides, petroleum-based fertilizers or sewage-sludge-based fertilizers. All tea is grown and manufactured under the very strict safety guidelines of European Union and US manufacturing procedures.

Sustainable. We consistently practice a caring attitude towards the environment. Our commitment to quality and sustainability means we offer environmentally responsible options to consumers. That's why our pyramid tea bags are made from Soilon - biodegradable material made from cornstarch and not nylon.

Responsible. Humming Cup Premium Organic Tea is a young company, but from the start we committed to strive to find ways to promote fair working conditions for our farmers. We are partnering exclusively with companies and tea estates that create and maintain a high level of support for farmers and their families. Our partnering tea estates build homes, hospitals and schools to make sure that all farmers are well cared for.

Overall, our commitment to the highest quality and sustainability boosts our knowledge of teas with our customers so we can deliver the best quality tea available today.
