Our Story
Our story started with a simple idea: what would happen if we created an iced tea that was both healthy and delicious? It was a journey inspired by a road trip along the West Coast of the U.S. and born out of our home kitchen in London.
We began by making jugs of homemade iced tea for friends and family after realising there were no iced teas that truly tasted the way real iced tea should.
So, we got to work.
Although a lot has happened since then, in many ways, nothing has really changed. We are still on our mission: to bring healthier choices into people's lives by showing what tea can truly be - authentic, uncompromised, and brewed the right way.
From the very beginning, we made a decision: never compromise on quality. When we started crafting our iced tea, we knew there was only one way to do it right - by brewing with real tea leaves. It meant a slower, more thoughtful process, but that’s exactly why it tastes so different.
We cold brew every batch for 24 hours using the highest-quality, single-origin loose-leaf teas we can find. This slow, batch-crafted approach is at the heart of everything we do - because better taste, better health, and better living should be simple.
A return to real tea that tastes as good as it feels.
Through our unwavering commitment to sourcing the best leaves for our iced tea, we quickly learned that there’s so much more to tea than just what’s in the can.
So, we decided to go further. Loose leaf tea has been part of human culture for centuries - a ritual steeped in tradition, care, and connection. But somewhere along the way, much of the tea industry lost its way: synthetic tea bags, microplastics, dusty blends, and artificial flavours replaced the purity of real, quality leaves.
We wanted to bring tea back to its roots, while reimagining it for the modern world. Our loose-leaf range celebrates the purity of real tea - whole leaves only, never dust - sourced with the same responsibility and care we’ve always applied to our iced teas.
Paired with beautiful, practical tools, we’ve made it easy to build your own tea ritual at home, without the mess or compromise. Each blend is thoughtfully crafted, not just for flavour, but for genuine health benefits - from soothing sleep teas to invigorating morning brews.
Today, you’ll find Marna in places like Fortnum & Mason and Soho House. We got there by staying true to what makes us different — crafting tea with real ingredients, no shortcuts, and a focus on how it makes you feel. Tea the way it’s meant to be: real, functional, and deeply satisfying.
