Twinings of London

Celebrating 300 years of tradition and taste.

From where does tea originate?

Twinings travels the world, through mountain villages and gardens, to source and bring home the consistent taste and uncompromising quality of the world's favourite tea blends.

Depending on the climate, certain geographic areas are better known for producing more tea. For example, over 100,000 tons of tea is produced each year in China and India. Historically, tea shipping routes brought tea from the Far East to Western countries via the southern tip of Africa. Today, countries such as Ukraine and Belarus also produce high quality teas.
