Behind the scenes
Mindful Roots Tea, is an award-winning loose leaf tea company founded by Elle Wanless in 2019. My passion for tea led me to become a Tea Champion in 2018 through the UK Tea Academy, I learned so much from this experience that it has inspired me to educate more people about tea through our virtual tea tastings and ignite the same interest and passion and encourage people to demand better tea! I am also currently a Tea specialist in training.
Recently named one of the UK’s 100 most inspiring female entrepreneurs as part of the f: entrepreneur #ialso campaign, Elle creates tea with the intention to nourish your mind, body, and soul.
” I have suffered various ailments from a young age. My Jamaican mother used to give me and my siblings herbal teas when we were feeling unwell.
When I was about 10 years old, not long after moving back to the UK, I would get stomach pains. My mum gave me some mint tea to help my stomach ache and nausea. She took me to the doctor for my stomach, and bear in mind this was many years ago, he told her not to give me any more of THAT kind of tea as their knowledge of plant-based remedies was not as well known in western medicine.
Since then, studies have shown that mint tea has been shown to aid with stomach ailments, and this is why I believe in the healing power of traditional remedies and natural ingredients. So many plant-based remedies exist and have been used for generations.
This has stuck with me throughout my life, and as someone who suffers from anxiety, I have found that tea has been a great comfort for me which I wanted to share with others.
The practice of drinking loose leaf tea can be an incredible tool for bringing balance to your mind and body health. I know that tea has incredible benefits that many people aren’t aware of, so my mission is to create tea blends that have those health and wellness benefits and teach people about them.
I believe that a cup of tea is more than just a beverage—it’s an experience. I wanted to create a range that was full of flavour, based on traditional remedies, and could have a fun element. I use organic ingredients where possible and I do not add any sugar, flavourings, or preservatives to my blends. ” Our loose-leaf tea and ingredients are sourced from all over the world, ensuring that every sip is an experience.
In a world that can be chaotic, our goal is to help you slow down and reconnect with yourself, so you can take care of both your mind and body. I want you to feel empowered to make decisions about your health—and that starts with making conscious choices about the products you consume.
I am committed to creating a 100% natural, ethical, and sustainable product for both the environment and our customers. With each purchase from Mindful Roots Tea, you are directly contributing to our mission of better health for ourselves, each other, and the planet.
