Bewley’s Tea
In 1835, Charles Bewley, made history by bringing the ship 'Hellas' into Dublin from Canton, bearing over 2,000 chests of tea.
It was an extraordinary initiative for the time and the Hellas was to be the first of many such ships. This was the first time that tea was shipped direct to Dublin since the Boston Tea Party, which saw an end to the monopoly held by the East India trading company in 1833.
Like wine, no two tea vintages are quite the same. So, our philosophy about tea is to blend consistent tastes and flavours for our customers. We source our tea from Kenya, China, India, Sri Lanka and Indonesia. Selecting only the finest teas based on leaf appearance and infusion qualities such as flavour, colour, strength and briskness. We offer a wide range of loose leaf, string & tag and speciality teas in all our channels, retail, foodservice, convenience and at work. For more information please contact us.
