About me

experience in the South African Tea Industry and has explored many forms of wellness;
from mental and spiritual to physical wellness. This then led her to start exploring the
benefits of tea, the ingredients and what the perfect cup of tea encapsulates.
Tlou Tea is a 100% female owned South African premium tea brand. Tlou is the Sepedi
word (her South African home language) for Elephant. This strong, larger-than-life
creature is a universal symbol of power, loyalty, humility and wisdom. These are all
qualities the brand wishes to embody and share with tea lovers from all walks of life.
The story behind Tlou Tea stems from not only a passion for tea but the wellness
benefits that come along with the perfect blend. The purpose is simple: To create tea
