CLIPPER TEAS LAUNCHES ORGANIC TEA ADVENT CALENDAR

Clipper Teas, the ethical tea brand owned by Wessanen UK, has launched an Organic Tea Advent Calendar designed to surprise and delight tea lovers in the run up to Christmas. 

The Clipper Organic Tea Advent Calendar (£4.99, 48g) is available online at clipper-teas.com, via Amazon and in health food trade stores from this month. 

The new SKU contains 24 tea bags with 12 different flavoured teas and infusions including festive favourites such as Orange & Lemon and Liquorice & Peppermint. Each tea bag is wrapped in a numbered sleeve for the 24 days leading up to Christmas and retrieved through an envelope-style opening in the box.

It is the first time Clipper has sold an advent tea calendar in the UK. Last year, Clipper released a similar product in Germany, which fast became one of the best-selling SKUs in the whole range that year. Now the brand is aiming to replicate this success with UK tea lovers looking for an alternative to chocolate advent calendars. 

In 2019, Clipper introduced the world’s first unbleached, non-GM tea bag made with a biodegradable, plant-based material. Each tea bag in the advent calendar is made with the same promise and the whole selection is also organic. 

Bryan Martins, marketing director for Clipper Teas at Wessanen UK says: 

“This is a fun, healthy and affordable Christmas treat and an enjoyable way for people to try a whole range of Clipper’s organic teas and infusions. At under £5, it’s also a perfect secret Santa gift.” 

Clipper Teas was the UK's first Fairtrade tea company and through its parent company Wessanen UK is a certified B Corp brand.
