THERE’S A LOOSE TEA REVOLUTION BREWING!

McEntee’s Tea, has been selected to supply Aldi’s 145 stores with their award winning teas through the Grow with Aldi programme from 6th March for 2 weeks! Grow with Aldi was launched a few years ago where Aldi offers the best of Irish small and medium sized food producers a 2 week  window to supply  its stores all across Ireland.

At McEntee’s Fine Teas they are passionate about quality Irish Blends of loose tea. Helen McEntee asks “Do we really need tea bags to make a cup of tea? Would it not be better to use loose tea and reduce packaging? McEntee’s  range of loose tea is a better grade of tea than the dust in tea bags. Better for you, Better for the Environment and a much Better tasting cup of tea! ”  

The three McEntee’s Irish loose Tea Blends created by Donal & Helen are all locally blended in Co.Louth, and are proud to be Guaranteed Irish.

They have all won awards at The Blas na hEireann Irish Food Awards, with the Afternoon Blend winning Gold recently.  In addition their Blends have won Gold Star awards at The Great Taste Awards. Their teas offer a great tasting, more sustainable offering for tea lovers.

Their range of Three Loose Irish Teas - Irish Afternoon Tea, Irish Breakfast Tea and Gold Blend Tea will be available in 145 Aldi stores nationwide from Sunday 6th March while stocks last for 2 weeks.

McEntee’s Tea is a family owned business run by husband and wife team Helen & Donal McEntee based in rural Co.Louth on the family farm. Both passionate tea drinkers, they developed the idea of McEntee’s Tea a number of years ago to bring back quality, great tasting Irish Blends of proper loose tea to make everyone’s cuppa a moment to enjoy. Donal said “I felt everyone had forgotten the aroma and flavour of proper tea, we need to remind them!”

Donal and Helens desire to develop McEntee’s Fine Teas dates back to their childhood where tea was central to traditional family life. Helen McEntee said “Tea has been a part of traditional Irish family life for generations, it’s important to us to remind people to take a moment to enjoy a pot of proper tea with family and friends once more”. This passion has driven their desire to bring back proper great tasting tea brewed in a teapot. They source a very select range of loose teas together with filter teapots from around the world.  By offering both the range of quality teas alongside the tea ware, they aim to make the move to proper tasting loose tea easier and affordable for everyone.
