TROPICAL TIDES
Tropical Tides is our mango-infused black loose-leaf tea delivering honeyed notes with a silken finish. Layered over a smooth black tea base, it highlights the flavor of ripe mango while remaining weightless on the palate. A delicate tropical fragrance leads into a soft sweetness that holds its clarity hot or over ice—offering a clean, sun-drenched lift without a syrupy coating. ☀︎ UNCOVER THE INSPIRATION
Inspired by the steady warmth of the shoreline, Tropical Tides captures the feeling of being suspended in a quiet, rhythmic sway. It’s the effortless ease of island time—a mellow experience that feels expansive and still. Defined by honeyed warmth and a lingering sweetness, it offers an inviting retreat that lets the rest of the world fade away.

IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING...
Shipping & Freshness
When can I expect my tea order to arrive?
Domestic orders typically take 1 to 3 business days to process, blend, and dispatch, then 1 to 5 business days in transit depending on your location. Most orders land on your doorstep within a week.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes! We offer free shipping on all orders $35 or more (and on all subscriptions) to all 50 U.S. states and Puerto Rico. For orders under $35, there’s a simple flat rate of $3.99 at checkout.
Do you offer expedited shipping?
We don't offer expedited shipping for a few reasons: it sets unrealistic expectations, it forces us to pass extra costs on to you, and most importantly, our small-batch process takes time. We blend and hand-pack our tea in deliberate batches so every bag is sealed at peak freshness, and standard shipping allows us to maintain that care without rushing the process.
What are your shipping methods?
Each order is unique, and the shipping package and method are based on what's best for the shipping process depending on the order size:
Single 3-oz or 12-oz bag ship via USPS Ground Advantage
Single 16-oz bag ship via FedEx 2-Day
2 to 8 packages ship via USPS Priority Mail
9 or more packages ship via UPS Ground
Do you fulfill or ship orders on weekends?
While we're always working to get your tea to you as quickly as possible, we don't process or ship orders over the weekend, since we believe our team deserves real time off for rest and family. Orders placed Saturday or Sunday start processing first thing Monday.
Do you ship your tea internationally?
For now, we're keeping our tea close to home, shipping to all 50 U.S. states and Puerto Rico. We're always looking toward new waters, so international shipping may be in our future.
Returns & Exchanges
What is your tea's return policy?
Because tea is a food product and yours is blended just for you, we can't accept returns unless we've specifically requested one in writing.
If your order arrived incorrect, damaged, or you have questions about brewing or quality, our Brew Crew is here to help. Contact us within 48 hours of receiving your order and we'll make it right. See our full Return Policy for details.
I ordered the wrong tea, what should I do?
If your order hasn't shipped yet (you haven't received a shipping confirmation email), contact us right away and we'll do our best to cancel it before it processes, so you can place a new order.
If it's already shipped or arrived and something's wrong, reach out the same way and we'll make it right. Since tea is perishable, we're not able to accept returns.
Can I exchange my tea order?
Since tea is a food product, we're not able to accept exchanges. But if an error was made, you're unhappy with your tea, or it arrived damaged, contact us within 48 hours of receipt and we'll make it right.
