The Rather Splendid Way to Start Your Morning
Look, we would love to tell you that we invented this tea, but we would be fibbing terribly. What we can tell you is that this magnificent large leaf Yunnan arrives at your door looking rather like spilled treasure, all soft golden tips and genuine artisan craftsmanship from the Yunnan province of China. You know, where tea actually began.
Why Choose Our Gold Tip Yunnan
Gorgeously Rich Flavour: Milk chocolate creaminess with savoury cocoa and black pepper notes that feel rather indulgent in a breakfast cup. As it cools, the flavour becomes earthier and properly layered, which is the sort of thing that catches you off guard in the nicest way.
Silky, Rounded Cup: Nothing rough or bitter here. Just a smooth, gentle experience that somehow feels rather luxurious despite us not being at all fancy about it.
Fabulously Handcrafted: High-grade leaves with an abundance of golden tips mean you are getting the real thing, not some dusty approximation of what tea ought to be.
Wonderfully Eco-Conscious: We have ditched the large coloured labels in favour of small name stickers you can simply peel away. The packet then becomes entirely biodegradable, which we rather think the planet prefers.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay
SECURE AS HOUSES
Everything's properly encrypted and secure - your details are safer than the Crown Jewels!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
