Award-Winning Artisan Tea from Regional Victoria

The Golden Leaf Awards are Australia's leading specialty tea awards, and since launching Tea Associates in 2020, our teas have now gone on to win 11 Golden Leaf Awards. We think that says something, but more importantly, we hope you taste it in every cuppa you make with our tea!

The most recent Golden Leaf Awards for 2025 were announced in early 2026. Tea Associates was presented with two Gold Awards (for Parisian Grey and 'Best Tea Website') and two Bronze Awards (for Bendigo Awakenings and Bedtime Bouquet).

As a small mother and daughter tea business in regional Victoria, this recognition means everything to us. It reflects the care we put into sourcing beautiful ingredients and creating blends we are genuinely proud to share.

We want to make exploring tea feel easy and enjoyable, so knowing that our website has been recognised alongside our teas is really special.

Recognised at the Golden Leaf Awards

The Golden Leaf Awards celebrate excellence in tea across Australia and around the world. Every tea entered is blind-tasted by an expert panel of chefs, winemakers, coffee specialists, food and wine journalists, and respected tea masters, so every award is earned purely on what's in the cup.

To be consistently recognised in such a competitive field is something we are really proud of. For our customers, we hope it simply means one thing... when you choose Tea Associates, you know you are choosing a good Aussie tea brand.
