Introducing the Darjeeling Collection.

Three teas, one story. Our 2026 Bungalow Release sits alongside our First and Second Flush Darjeelings, a collection built to show how one origin can taste so different depending on when the leaves are plucked.

First Flush brings bright, floral notes from spring’s earliest harvest. Second Flush deepens into something richer and more full-bodied. Bungalow blends both flushes into a single, complex cup, a rare chance to taste how the seasons complement each other.

$5 from every tin or tip top sold goes to Broadleaf, supporting the farmers and communities behind the tea we love.

Find the collection in stores or online while it lasts.

In the 1970s, Steve Smith was working at a natural food store in NW Portland when he noticed something odd: the peppermint grown in Oregon and Washington was incredibly delicious, yet nearly all of it was being distilled into oil for gum and toothpaste. None was being grown for tea.

So he drove out to a mint coalition in Eastern Oregon and asked if any farmers would be willing to grow mint for leaf instead of oil. That one question from our founder, and the adventurous farmers who said yes, helped bring Pacific Northwest peppermint into tea production for the first time.

Decades later, we’re still proud to work with many of those same farmers to bring Pacific Northwest peppermint from their fields to your cup. Swipe through for the full story.
