At Blue Ocean Tea, we are specialty tea blenders.

As specialist tea manufacturers, we small batch blend our teas in frictionless blenders. In 2021, we will be adding larger frictionless blenders to our repertoire. Our team of master blenders can produce 250 MT of blended teas, herbs, fruit, and spices annually.

We contract manufacture for our customers, acting as private label tea manufacturers and have state of the art blending, tin and pouch filling machines, and mesh tea bag and envelope machines. We continue to strategically add equipment to assist our customers with their tea blending and manufacturing requirements.
