Our Story
Redefining Tea from London to the West Coast
Marna started with a simple frustration. Why was it so hard to find an iced tea that was both delicious and genuinely good for you?
Inspired by a road trip along the US West Coast and brought to life in a home kitchen in London, founders Tristan and Mauro began brewing real iced tea for friends. It quickly became clear that most iced teas on the market were shortcuts.
Extracts, sugar, and dust instead of real tea.
Marna was created to change that. Real leaves. Proper brewing. No compromise.
The Art of the 24-Hour Cold Brew
From day one, Marna has been brewed the right way.
Every batch is cold brewed for 24 hours using high-quality, single-origin loose leaf tea. This slow process allows flavour to develop naturally, without bitterness and without added sugar.
The result is a clean, vibrant iced tea that tastes like real tea. Because it is.
From Iced Tea to Loose Leaf
Sourcing exceptional tea for our drinks revealed a bigger issue. Much of the tea industry had lost touch with quality.
Synthetic tea bags, microplastics, and artificial flavourings replaced real leaves.
Marna’s loose leaf range is a return to purity. Whole-leaf teas only, sourced and blended with the same care as our iced teas, paired with practical tools to make loose leaf simple for everyday life.
The Marna Tea Club
Our journey naturally led to the Marna Tea Club.
A monthly subscription designed to help you build a consistent, healthy tea ritual.

No mess. No guesswork. Just better tea, made easy.
