Public Profile

The Tea Spot is working to create a total tea solution that makes loose leaf tea an everyday luxury The firm was originally founded by Maria Uspenski, a cancer survivor that was drawn to the health benefits of tea during her recovery. The Tea Spot is promoting wellness by making loose leaf tea (tea in its freshest form) that renders incredible flavor, unmatched health benefits, and is eco-friendly. The firm produces innovative products to modernize the loose leaf tea experience and the firm’s Steepware line promotes the ease of making loose tea as well as individualized single-servings. The Tea Spot’s line of full leaf tea  includes organic and Fair-Trade Certified estate teas as well as handcrafted signature blends. Medical research has suggested that full leaf teas boast many health and nutritional benefits – from helping prevent cancer and heart disease, to stress management and weight loss. The firm is committed to offering the finest teas from around the world, with organic single–source traditional teas and unique handcrafted blends. These full leaf signature teas are made with carefully picked teas that have been harvested and processed by traditional methods from the world’s best estates. Traditionally harvested teas are more eco-friendly than the machine processed teas used in tea bags.
