JP's Originals was founded in May 2020 by Urvashi, with a mission to revolutionise the tea drinking experience. After several years and countless cups of coffee, Urvashi realised that a healthier alternative had to be considered. Coming from a family of tea growers, she had only ever tasted whole leaf teas in India and found quality teas to be less accessible in the UK. The idea of a brand (named after her grandfather, Mr. JP) encompassing the key elements in a great cup of tea: provenance, leaf grading, sustainability and quality, was then born. The teas are all packaged in plastic-free biodegradable tea pyramids and individual envelopes, ensuring that same high quality loose leaf tea is accessible at work, when travelling or even just at home. Whilst tasting the teas and developing the brand, Urvashi encountered an unexpected illness which resulted in the formulation of wellbeing teas and infusions with CBD, to support our evolving energy states throughout the day. Since brand inception, JP's Originals is proud to be stocked with reputable retailers, work to maintain the highest quality of tea whilst remaining environmentally conscious, won Great Taste awards, and fix the broken sleep of many. We hope to bring so much more!
