In 2018, we rehabilitated three tea plantations in Georgia (Europe) that had been abandoned for 30 years. We learned how to be tea farmers and how to make good tea, and today some of the most respected tea shops around the world stock our award-winning teas. More importantly, more than 2500 families around the world trust us to grow their yearly tea supply!
Our small farm works mostly on a pre-order basis so we would know which teas to make for you. If you have found your favorites among our teas, then we invite you to make your order before the season starts, so we can grow and produce those teas for you.
If you drink at least one cup of tea every other day, then adopting a tea garden and ordering your yearly tea supply in advance is a good idea - you help us reduce waste while getting a better price per kg! Shipping is free worldwide!
Each season, we produce around 20 different organic teas. We make several different recipes of white, green, oolong, black, yellow, roasted teas, and even some herbal teas. Even though we have some staple recipes, we love experimenting to discover new flavours that Georgian tea leaves can reveal. All the teas have been grown on our farm and crafted in our small factory.
If you're not ready to adopt your own tea garden and order a yearly supply, then start instead with a taster set to find your favourites among Renegade teas. You can also order a set simply to enjoy yourself or to give as a thoughtful gift.
We’ll give you a tour around the Renegade Tea Estate plantations and our small tea factory. You’ll hear about the history of Georgian tea, how tea is made, what life in Georgia is like, or any other topics that interest you. We are just 20 minutes from Kutaisi.
Pre-booking is necessary for the guided tours.
We're not a tea company. We are a tea farm. We are not tea sellers. We are tea producers. We are a group of friends aiming to build one of the best tea farms out there. We started this journey as complete rookies, but with a lot of optimism and thirst to learn, we've come a long way.
Due to the climate, Georgian tea has its own unique profile — sweet and light, yet also complex. Our approach adds a further twist. Renegade teas are like wine: each season, each month, even each batch is a little different. Instead of sticking to 2–3 fixed recipes and reproducing them year after year as our “holy grails,” we prefer to keep experimenting.
Find out when new stuff arrives or when something exciting is happening at the farm. We keep the sales information to a minimum and try not to bother you more than once a month :)
Every month we send a behind-the-scenes newsletter to those who are interested in what is really happening on our farm on a daily basis and how we cope with the farmer life ourselves. We share with you the good and the bad.
