The Ethical Tea Tribe of Shisso Tea Company
“If a man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty.”
Tribe Vision & Mission
At Shisso Tea Company, we stand as stewards of ethics, devotion, and transcendent quality. Our journey transcends continents, weaving a tapestry of ethereal teas and botanicals. We seek to restore reverence to the revered ritual of tea through profound enlightenment and authentic experiences rooted in the spiritual heritage of tea culture. The time has come for The Ethical Tea Revolution, and you, dear Tribe, are its torchbearers.

The Ethical Tea Revolution Unveiled
“Tea has a long and turbulent history, filled with intrigue, adventure, fortune gained and lost, embargoes, drugs, taxation, smugglers, war, revolution, religious aestheticism, artistic expression, and social change. Tea’s association with colourful, far-off lands fabled for richly textured fabrics, aromatic spices, and delicate porcelain tableware helps to explain how a humble commodity from China came to both fire the imagination and stimulate the palate of upper-class Europeans in the early seventeenth century.”
The Guardians of Virtue & Ceremony
We, the Ethical Tea Tribe, are not just connoisseurs of gastronomy; we are warriors of ecology and champions of freedom, together, we craft a new global network, united in our pursuit of quality, fair employment, organic sustenance, fair pricing, and transparent sourcing.
we are a community of tea lovers who care about where their cuppa comes from, who want to know their dollars are making a difference and who want to gain serenity from the ceremony. We are committed to cultivating a community dedicated to upholding our Seven Sacred Virtues, recognizing that in order to manifest change, our minds must evolve in harmony with our bodies.
Join The Ethical Tea Tribe now and help us spread the word! As a member, you will receive updates, special promos and will be apart of a community of “Woke Folks”. Without your presence, this journey towards an elevated and ethical tea experience would remain an empty table.
Let the Mad Tea Party begin in earnest!

The Elevated & Ethical Tea Experience
“Who would then deny that when I am sipping tea in my tearoom I am swallowing the whole universe with it and that this very moment of my lifting the bowl to my lips is eternity itself transcending time and space?”
The Pupils of Camellia Sinensis
We want to know about each set of hands along the leaves journey from the garden to clay cup and the distance it’s travelled to arrive there. We want to taste fresh batches of teas not passed through countless middle men, to establish traceability and transparency within our supply chain. We want to experience the fullness of each teas origin, it’s history, culture of its peoples and the traditional ceremonies which it embodies.
We want to know that each cup we drink contains only the purest of Camellia Sinensis, botanicals and essential oils. We want to share the wealthy knowledge of tea’s nutritional, medicinal and healing properties. We want you to feel incredible, body, mind and soul with each sip of Shisso Tea. We want to create a movement in the tea industry, to advocate for the voices unheard and for our dollars to make a difference.
We would also like to invite to our Ethical Tea Tribe communication channel on Telegram {an encrypted messaging app} to connect with the community outside of the social platforms. Here you will get updates as we grow, along with tips to transform your relationship with tea and brew an artful cup.
