Loose Leaf Tea in Glasgow
Chai by Kai is loose leaf tea weighed, blended and packed by hand in Glasgow, then posted from the city to your door. One person, small batches, priced fair.
Blended in Glasgow, not in a warehouse
Every pouch is made up to order here in Glasgow. Single origin black, green, oolong and white teas, caffeine free herbals, and our own small batch blends like Scottish Breakfast and Chocolate Mint, all mixed by hand.
There is no shop to walk into. Everything is ordered online and posted, which keeps the prices honest and means the tea you get was packed this week, not something that sat on a shelf. Our business address is 48 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 1BP.
Delivery from Glasgow
Orders go out by Royal Mail from Glasgow. Letter sized orders are £1.95, parcels are £3.99, and delivery is free over £30. Glasgow and central belt addresses usually see their tea the next day or the day after it is posted.

Built in Glasgow, with Glasgow's help
Chai by Kai is a disabled and care experienced led brand, started with support from Business Glasgow and the King's Trust. Once a fair wage for the blending hours is covered, 30% of the profit goes to care experienced and disabled causes close to home.
