About us
The Taylors of Harrogate story.
Introduction
An independent family business sharing tea and coffee with the world.
We believe in doing good. That means trading in a fair and responsible way, and it also means creating good products – making top quality teas and coffees that taste delicious. We’ve stayed true to those beliefs for more than 130 years, as we’ve grown from a tiny family business to a company that sells tea and coffee to 50 countries around the world. And because we’re independent, we’ve never had to compromise those family values.
We have three unique brands. Taylors of Harrogate speciality teas, offering a wide range of black, green and fruit and herbal varieties. Taylors Coffee, famous for its speciality grade quality. And the UK’s favourite black tea, Yorkshire Tea.
