01 / The story

A designer's eye,
a traveler's palate.

Tea Forté began in 2003 with founder Peter Hewitt, a designer who fell for whole-leaf tea in the teahouses of Asia and set out to reimagine how it is experienced.

The result was the now-iconic pyramid infuser — a tall silken sachet that gives whole leaves room to unfurl, finished with a single signature leaf rising from the top.

Sourcing teas that represent less than 1% of those available worldwide and pairing them with exquisite packaging, Tea Forté has become a fixture of five-star hospitality and the luxury gifting aisle.
