A LITTLE ABOUT US

Meet the Makers!

Small-Batch Herbal Tea Company in Sussex

Whimsy Brews is a small-batch herbal tea company based in Sussex UK, founded by two sisters passionate about folklore, herbs, and mindful living.

Our Story

We grew up travelling across Asia before eventually settling in Goa, where we lived intermittently until we were 18 and 16. During those years, we were immersed in many different ways of life, surrounded by vibrant herbs, aromatic spices, and countless myths and stories. Those experiences nurtured our fascination with herbal traditions and inspired us to blend the magic of folklore with the art of tea-making.

Today, we handcraft our teas in Sussex using locally sourced botanicals and time-honoured blending methods. Each blend is made in small batches to preserve freshness and connection — from our hands to your cup.

At Whimsy Brews, we believe tea is more than a drink; it’s a ritual, a story, and a moment of calm. Our unique blends are crafted for everyone who seeks a touch of the mystical in their everyday life. Through each brew, we hope to share the enchantment of herbs, the beauty of nature, and the folklore that inspired us to begin this journey..
