There’s nothing like a good story shared over a soothing cup of tea, and the family legend that inspired The Tea Spot is no exception. When founder Maria Uspenski’s grandmother was fleeing war-torn Russia, she escaped with her beloved samovar, a steel water heater used for making tea. That samovar now graces Maria’s tea house on the grounds of her home in the high mountains of central Colorado and symbolizes The Tea Spot’s commitment to brewing resilience and love in every cup. As the leading tea brand for active lifestyles, The Tea Spot’s mission is to inspire, empower, and support vibrant health with tea at one’s side. Infusing age-old traditions with functional botanicals, we bring exquisite flavor and freshness together in every tea. 

We count on tea to make us feel good, help manage stress, and give us a natural boost of antioxidants, but did you know that hot or cold, pure tea is even more hydrating than plain water? There’s a reason athletes from the world over turn to tea after a race! Life moves fast and our STEEPWARE®—from teapots to tea travel mugs and sport bottles—lets you brew tea with ease at home or the office and everywhere in between.
