Welcome to Folklore Tea Company

Welcome to Folklore Tea Company, where tradition and quality meet in every cup. Based in Auckland, New Zealand, we specialise in crafting sticky tea, a rich and flavourful blend made with Assam tea, aromatic Indian spices, and New Zealand honey. Our mission is simple: to offer a chai experience that’s authentic, delicious, and made with only natural ingredients.

We started with a love for chai and a vision to create something extraordinary. Inspired by the traditional recipes of India, and New Zealand’s commitment to quality natural products, Folklore Tea Company bridges cultures through flavour. Every batch of sticky tea is carefully handcrafted in small batches to ensure consistent quality, so you can enjoy the same rich taste and aroma with every brew.

Our blends are designed to stand out. Whether you're savouring our Vanilla Spiced Sticky Tea, enjoying the bold flavours of our Spiced Sticky Chai, or using our Barista Blend to elevate your café’s offerings, you’ll taste the difference that premium ingredients and expert blending make. Plus, our honey not only adds a natural sweetness but also helps lock in the spices’ freshness, ensuring every brew tastes as good as the first.

At Folklore Tea Company, we’re proud to be part of New Zealand’s vibrant café culture while staying true to the traditions of chai. We invite you to join us on this journey—one sip at a time.
