At Thompson's Tea, we only source our leaves from growers who have high standards, make great teas, and whom we can trust.
People who share our ideals regarding their relationship with their workforce, treating their fellow worker with respect and offering equal opportunity.
Nowadays our sourcing policy is, by necessity, more formalized, and, although we source from these same famous gardens, we have extended our sourcing policy to include regular garden visits and extensive checks.
Thankfully for us, it is very often the gardens which produce the finest teas, who also have the resources and the will to provide properly for their labour force.
Furthermore, it makes us happy to know that paying premium prices for our tea leaves means that this additional money can help to provide better facilities for employees and families on the tea garden.
The best gardens are able to command the highest prices, and in turn, are able to provide better amenities and services on the tea garden, from quality housing and on-site hospitals, to excellent classrooms for the children.
