The Difference

The LMF Difference

LMF teas come from some of the world's finest tea gardens. Unlike bagged teas, loose teas are made from high-grade tea leaves that unfurl when brewed. The result is a superior tea drinking experience: layered, rich, and smooth.

We also make the utmost effort to make every aspect of our business sustainable, we package in recyclable US made steel tins, and use labels printed on 100% recycled bleach free paper, printed with soy ink. Send us your creative ideas for how you re-use our tins!

Our Vision

Our vision extends beyond superior products to promoting social and environmental sustainability through business. That's why we only offer Fair Trade, organically grown teas. Fair Trade Certification keeps farmers on their land, while organic certification ensures long-term productivity of the land. Even our packaging is made of highly reusable, recyclable steel, with recycled paper labels.

Fair Trade

Fair Trade Certification ensures that farmers around the world are justly compensated for their labors. In addition, LMF Tea Traders pays a set premium into a commuity account for each tea estate we import from. Workers, productions staff, farmers, and owners then vote to build schools, buy gas-burning stoves, or otherwise empower their villages and communities. LMF Tea Traders is honored to partner with producers and consumers to create positive change here at home and around the world.
