Kusmi Tea by Lost At E Minor
Next time you fancy a good, strong cup of tea, check out Kusmi Tea’s addictive collection.
Founded in St Petersburg, Russia, the famous teahouse has been churning out celebrated Russian teas for more than 140 years. Now headquartered in Paris, its Eastern roots remain with Russian blends of black teas boasting names like Prince Vladimir and Anastasia. Whether you go for the green, black, red, herbal or wellness stash, Kusmi only uses sophisticated blends of premium leaves, herbs, and spices.
We also love Kusmi’s baroque style packaging. Reusable tin canisters, they are saturated with ornate and intricate illustrations fit for a czar.

Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea
From two guys obsessed with tea, Andrews & Dunham Damn Fine Tea is (not surprisingly) darn good stuff. We first noticed the new brand's screenprinted packaging by the Minneapolis, MN-based Aesthetic Apparatus, wrapping each tin in fresh graphics. Happily, the Damn Fine Tea itself lives up to its cute exterior. Andrews & Dunham's blends are as straightforward and honest as their attitude about them,...
