Origin Tea is a family-owned Australian tea company which sources the finest and freshest high-grade Ceylon tea straight from a single origin – Sri Lanka.

It was founded by brothers Chris and Lawrence Seaton in 2012 with the premise of making tea ‘cool’ and shaking up the tea industry in line with what’s happened with coffee this millennium.

Just as ‘single origin coffee’ became the latest buzzword and coffee drinkers demanded to know where their beans were from, Origin Tea is one of the few single origin tea companies offering traceability of its tea. By sourcing from a single origin, including some family-owned plantations, Origin Tea ensures consistency and quality in every cup.

In addition to traditional tea bags and loose-leaf tea, Origin Tea is famous for its cult Sticky Chai, which is available at more than 1000 cafes around Australia, and quick and easy Iced Tea syrups which baristas or bartenders can use to make an iced tea spritz in 30 seconds flat.

Origin Tea is exhibiting at the Melbourne International Coffee Expo for the first time – come and meet the Seatons and try some single origin Origin Tea, including Sticky Chai, Iced Tea and new Tea Syrups.
