The maker

Kusmi Tea

Kusmi Tea was founded in St. Petersburg in 1867 by Pavel Kousmichoff, who left his village at fourteen to apprentice with a tea trader and learned the art of blending so well that his master gave him a shop as a wedding gift. His teas became a favourite of the Russian tsars, growing to a chain of more than fifty tea houses before the family fled the 1917 Revolution and re-established the house on Avenue Niel in Paris, shortening the name to Kusmi. Taken over by brothers Sylvain and Claude Orebi in 2003, the maison turned firmly toward organic, achieving full organic certification and B Corp status, with every blend now imagined and made in its own workshops in Normandy.
