WHY WE LOVE IT

This tea feels like a small, daily luxury — familiar, comforting, but made with far more care than most “everyday” blends. Spill work directly with smallholder farmers in Rwanda, choosing leaves for their depth and clarity, and paying well above fair price to support the communities who grow them.

The result is a cup with real character: rounded, smooth, and quietly robust. It brews beautifully whether you take it black or with milk, and there’s a purity to the flavour that makes it the kind of tea you instinctively reach for. It’s become a constant in our own kitchen — the kettle goes on, and this is the bag we look for.And truly, no hamper feels complete without a good tea.

Across our Signature, Classic, and Celebration boxes, it adds that gentle, grounding moment — a simple pleasure made with intention, and a reminder that the everyday things should still be most beautifully done.

Spill Tea is on a mission to make your daily cuppa genuinely great — full-flavoured, ethically sourced, and made with complete transparency. These teabags use high-quality, loose-leaf grade tea sourced directly from smallholder farmers in Rwanda, who are paid significantly above the Fairtrade minimum price to ensure a better income and more resilient communities.

The result? A bold, bright, naturally rich tea with real depth — no dusty filler, no blandness, no compromises. Each bag brews a clean, balanced cup that’s perfect for your morning routine or an afternoon reset. Strong enough for milk, smooth enough to drink black.

Thoughtfully produced, beautifully boxed, and crafted by industry experts Lou & Sofia (formerly teapigs), this is the everyday tea upgrade you didn’t know you needed — ethical, delicious, and refreshingly honest.

SPILL tea is English Tea from Rwanda where tea farmers have a formal plucking standard for selecting the best quality tea leaves. It's a serious business; the freshest two leaves and a bud. From the top of the bush. Not too big, not too small. Farmers receive a premium for plucking tea to this very high standard. And they pluck by hand; hands see better than machines.

Valentines Day Surprises

Great items and wonderful presentation. Sent early to avoid disappointment. The team were super accommodating when an extra order of hot sauce was added to avoid a delay. We loved all the products.

Biscuits & Customer service excellent

These biscuits were delicious and packaged beautifully. Customer service was also excellent, I had a slight problem with delivery dates but Brittany sorted it immediately and made sure we had our biscuits on time for Burns Night. Would definitely recommend, thank again!

Give a gift they'll actually want

Excellent gifting service - highly recommend. For people who are looking for a high quality, curated hamper rather than something full of mass-produced chutneys that will gather dust at the back of your cupboard. The handwritten note adds to the personal touch, and the free delivery was very efficient. Don't give your money to The Man, support The Local!

An Amazing Gift

We were given a hamper from The Local as a present after having a baby and I can honestly tell you it was the best thing.

Incredibly luxurious and full of things that you won't find anywhere else, plus it was delivered in less than 24 hours.

I never normally write reviews, but I love this business and I love this concept and will be a long time customer so thought I would make an exception and show my support.

Best Hampers

Best. Hampers. Ever! Seriously, I couldn't recommend these more. I bought two beautiful Christmas hampers for family and they absolutely loved them. All the produce is top quality and I've gone on to buy the coffee and wine for myself. So nice to support a growing local business too 🙏 Thanks for a great service.

The produce from their hamper was…

The produce from their hamper was incredible. Very high quality produce, delivered on time and packaged beautifully. This was a perfect gift from one of our business partners. We especially enjoyed the local sparkling wine and my wife is in love with the quality of the coffee. If I could give 6 stars, I would! Will be contacting The Local in the new year for some gift ideas for our suppliers.
