Clipper Rise & Shine Tea

Clipper is a pioneering British tea company known for its commitment to ethical sourcing and natural ingredients. Originally founded in 1984 in Dorset, England, the brand gained a reputation for being the UK's first Fairtrade tea brand. The 'Rise & Shine' variety is a popular herbal infusion, typically featuring ingredients like yerba mate, lemongrass, and lemon peel.

The product is primarily manufactured and blended in the United Kingdom, specifically at the company's factory in Beaminster, Dorset. The brand places a strong emphasis on organic certifications and plastic-free tea bags, which are visible through the organic logos on the packaging. Since 2012, the brand has been under the ownership of large international food groups, ensuring its distribution across European and Australian markets.

Currently, Clipper is owned by Ecotone (formerly known as Wessanen), a European leader in organic and vegetarian food products. Ecotone is headquartered in France and focuses on biodiversity and sustainable food practices, aligning with Clipper's original brand ethos of natural and fair trade production.
