Mindful Roots Tea was announced as a winner at the 2022 Nourish Awards, the leading health food awards in the UK.
The Nourish Awards celebrated its 5th successful award season and announced the 2022 winners on Thursday, 22nd September at the Caledonian Club in Belgravia during a vibrant black-tie presentation and networking reception. The event compère was chef, nutritionist and author Naomi Devlin whose fun and witty presentation style has become a much-anticipated part of the Nourish Award events.
Winners are awarded in 20 categories each year including snacks, purely plants, sports nutrition, gut-friendly & fermented foods, health drinks and many more.

Island Sorrel was chosen by the Tea, Coffee and Hot Drinks category judges to receive a gold award.
“It is such an honour to have won this award, particularly with such a high standard of entrants. I am proud and delighted to have won this award, it’s been the culmination of a lot of hard work from a company which is committed to creating healthy drink products which are nutritious and tasty. As this blend is a little piece of my heritage, I am so happy that I get to share a little piece of Jamaica with everyone. said E. Wanless, Owner of Mindful Roots Tea.
The awards received more than 300 entries this year which were judged over several weeks during the summer in a robust process, working with over 20 judges, who are all qualified and practising nutritionists, dietitians or leaders in the food, drink and supplement sectors.
Diana Babics, founder of the Nourish Awards, said:
“This year’s awards saw unprecedented innovation in the health and free-from sectors. Convenience foods, supplements and plant-based products surprised and delighted the judges in particular. We are incredibly proud to celebrate these fantastic products and the passionate people behind them who lead the way to a healthier future.”
