One would imagine that bringing
tea to India is like carrying
coal to Newcastle (as the saying
goes), but we have in the past,
to the delight of our customers,
brought into India the finest in
many products that are also
grown in India – Spanish
saffron, Italian Coffee,
Himalayan Sea Salt, Indian
pepper – to name a few, so it’s
probably no surprise to many of
our customers that we now
introduce tea, a product that is
practically synonymous with
India! Think Assam, Darjeeling,
Nilgiris.
The Tea (and Coffee and drinking
Chocolate & Hot Chocolate) that
we launch today is OUTSTANDING!
All products are CERTIFIED FAIR
TRADE (The farmer gets his due
rewards) And/or CERTIFIED
ORGANIC. The range of teas
consists of single geographical
origin, traditional British
blends ( Earl Grey, English
Breakfast), infusions, green and
white teas.
Clipper Tea, the Company that
produces this exquisite range,
has been working for over past
25 years with the leading
growers in Asia, Africa and S.
America. All the products they
pack are Certified Fairtrade
and/or Certified Organic, which
is testimony to their business
principles – not only to offer
the Best for the Customer but
also to assist the grower,
towards a sustainable future.
Clipper were the first tea in
the UK to carry the Fairtrade
Mark. They have not only become
the only company in the UK to
offer an entire range which is
Fairtrade and organic, but pride
themselves for being ‘Natural,
Fair and Delicious’, only using
the purest ingredients of the

suppliers and select, blend,

aims to be the best tasting
conventional tea available. Our

in the UK, and now includes 15
varieties including Pure Green,

IT'S BEEN 25 YEARS...
Clipper has always been a
different kind of tea company...
It was started in 1984 by Mike
and Lorraine Brehme with just
two chests of Assam tea from a
single tea estate. Teas of such
quality weren’t widely available
at that time and proved to be a
huge success.
The company hit its stride when
it became involved with the
Fairtrade Foundation. Clipper
eventually launched the very
first Fairtrade tea in 1994, but
this was an ethical business
from the start. “It was always
about how you want to make a
living,” explains Mike. “I was
in tea already, and I realised
there was child labour involved
and I thought, ‘That’s no way to
make a living.’”
Clipper has always been
innovative, too. Over the years
we have introduced organic tea,
coffee, white tea, Rooibos and
the Japanese-style sencha. But
everything we do has to be in
line with the company’s
principles, laid down by the
founders as: “Always a pure,
natural product – there isn’t a
single artificial ingredient in
any of the products.”
A school bus funded by the
Fairtrade premium's paid by
Clipper for it's Fairtrade teas.
And the other principle, of
course, is taste. We are in no
doubt that our Fairtrade
Everyday Tea is the best-tasting
conventional tea you can buy –
not just the best Fairtrade tea.
It’s the same in whatever we do,
Fairtrade or organic, tea,
coffee or chocolate. That’s why
we say it’s Natural, Fair and
Delicious.
Established in 1984, we have
continued to pioneer the hot
beverage market for the last 25
years. We have demonstrated
innovation by leading the way in
green tea, white tea and organic
teas and infusions, and we were
the first tea in the UK to carry
the Fairtrade Mark.
We have not only become the only
company in the UK to offer an
