My first time having homemade baklava and I love how subtle the sweetness is in comparison to store bought. Also the mix of the different nuts and spices pairs perfectly with any tea and coffee! So delicious and you can tell it's made with love!

I'm no tea expert, but their blends taste amazing and feel special. They have unique options you don't find everywhere, and each tea has a cool story or inspiration behind it. Plus, they're all about giving back to the community, which I love. Even as a casual tea drinker, I could tell they put a lot of thought into each blend. Highly recommend giving them a try if you're into unique, quality teas!

this baklava was delicious! I loved both the kemet and desert rose. They were decadent and packaged beautifully. They would make such a special treat for someone.

The baklava was delicious and perfectly portioned! I wanted a sweet treat for my girlfriend on valentine's day and these were perfect. You can tell they are homemade and the package was great too! Really made it feel like it was homemade and with love! Definitely will get again!

I actually don't like baklava but they looked so good and so different from the ones I've been used to trying. I tried one bite and I think I like baklava now but only from tea&. It was so good with the flavors appearing in my mouth and I would eat again!

The Hibiscus tea is the most refreshing drink I have ever had compared to other Hibiscus teas in the market. Her ingredients are clean, which is important for me. If you are looking for a nutrient-dense, nutritious, and easy drink, this is the one for you. -

Baklava was delightful and decadent.. nutty and sweet, flaky and buttery, pairing it with some hot tea was a perfect treat.

The baklava is *chefs kiss*. Can't get enough of it! I had one with little cacao pieces on top-creative genius. Sometimes I like to add a dollop of cool whip to the baklava, or vanilla ice cream, or add pieces of baklava to a cup of ice cream for a special dessert. They aren't overly sweet and have a good amount of chewy and crispy. Their size is perfect too. Not a large piece cut out of a pan and not an itty bitty roll. The shape is also perfect if you just want one bite and save the rest for later.

I am actually not a baklava fan so I was apprehensive when ordering it from tea&. However, when I sunk my teeth into one, the buttery, flakey and sweet combo truly was euphoric - I ate every single piece in one sitting.

tea& is a small-batch tea and baklava company rooted in egyptian tradition. we blend loose-leaf teas sourced in partnership with egyptian farmers, and hand-make baklava in flavors you won’t find in a store. every blend carries a story of family, of place, and of the people who grow what’s in your cup. we also bring that to life through private events, catering, custom blending workshops and a monthly subscription.

our hibiscus comes from egypt, where karkade has been poured at every celebration for generations. our green and smokey teas come from anhui and fujian provinces in china. every blend is organic, vegan, gmo free and gluten free, with no preservatives, no fillers and no artificial flavors. what’s on the label is what’s in the cup, and each product page lists the full ingredients, origin and tasting notes.

custom blends, dry teas and box sets are made to order, so there’s no fixed price or recipe. we start with a conversation. tell us the occasion, the flavors you love and roughly how many people you’re serving, and we’ll build the blend and send a quote. use the inquire for quote button on any custom product, or the contact form, and you’ll hear back from us within 72 hours.

we accept orders from washington residents only at this time, while we grow at a pace that lets us keep every batch small and fresh. if a blend or baklava shows as out of stock, it means that batch has sold through. join our newsletter and we’ll let you know the moment it’s back, or reach out and we’ll tell you when the next batch is coming.
