Introducing Our Founder
It all began with a journey.
A journey that took me through the Netherlands and Scotland. This was where my palate and knowledge of teas developed, and (as I tried to keep warm!) I became more aware of blend and flavor.
I started writing about my travels; there was a blog and then a magazine — but then my mother died. And her thirst for life, even at the end, brought something out in me that I put back into the business.
Her enthusiasm and love of life and living gave everything I did a new perspective, and I like to think that all of this found its way into the tea. The teas and thoughts of my mother are intrinsically linked and always will be.
Introducing Our Founder
The vibrant tea culture of Scotland to the terraced tea conversations of Amsterdam, it all made its way into the Plum Deluxe blog, mixed with thoughts on savoring life and living it to its fullest. And then, from these conversations came real-world products — and Plum Deluxe tea was born.
Our tea is a fusion of ideas, places, reminiscences, and a need for community — a gathering of like-minded souls.
There’s something truly special, remarkable, even, about how a versatile blend of teas can bring together a group of people, a community of like-minded tea lovers from all over the country, to talk about their love of tea.
Join us, we'll bring the tea.
— Andy, Plum Deluxe Founder.
