Standing in front of the supermarket shelf, everything seems tasty and responsible. But appearances can be deceptive. Not every tea is organic, fairly produced or free of microplastics. And what does that bag really say? To help you choose, we have made a list of fine, sustainable tea brands in a bag, on sale in the (eco) supermarket or online.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sustainable tea: here's what to look out for!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When you think of sustainable tea, you might immediately think of loose tea. And rightly so, as it often produces less waste. Top. But these days you can also make a fine responsible choice in bags. Although that does require some attention. Because not every tea bag is as \u2018green\u2019 as it looks. First of all, check the origin of the ingredients. Organic tea is grown without artificial fertilisers or harmful pesticides, with attention to soil, nature and biodiversity. That is a better choice anyway. You can recognise such tea by the <a href=\"https:\/\/biologisch-keurmerk.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">EU organic label<\/a> (that green leaf on the package).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also two well-known social labels to look out for with tea: Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance. They both have different approaches. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fairtrade.net\/nl-nl.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fairtrade<\/a> focuses mainly on fair trade: farmers get a minimum price as well as a premium to invest in their communities. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rainforest-alliance.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rainforest Alliance<\/a> takes a broader view of sustainability, focusing on the environment, biodiversity and working conditions. Is one of these logos on your box of tea? Then you can be sure that steps have been taken towards a fairer chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And then, of course, you have the bag itself. What many people don't know: some tea bags - especially the luxury pyramid-shaped ones - contain plastic. They are therefore not (entirely) compostable and may even release microplastics into your tea. Since 2023, all tea bags (and coffee pods too) are officially allowed to be disposed of in kitchen and garden waste. Sounds good, but unfortunately that does not automatically mean they are all plastic-free. Want to know exactly how this works and what to look out for when choosing tea? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thegreenlist.nl\/en\/enjoying-a-cup-of-sustainable-tea\/\">In our article on sustainable tea<\/a> we take you from tea plantation to the bag in your cup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The tastiest sustainable tea brands<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Time for the list: the tastiest sustainable tea brands in a bag. These brands pay attention to fair trade, organic ingredients \u00e1nd package their tea in the most eco-friendly way possible. In short: tea brands that totally fit your greener shopping list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tea of life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tea of Life is one of those brands where everything fits. Fairtrade and B Corp-certified, CO2-neutral production and tea bags that are fully compostable, so no microplastics in your cup. The tea is not only grown in Sri Lanka, but also processed into the end product there. This keeps work and income local, which benefits the region. Per kilo of tea, the brand also invests 25 cents back into the environment through its own Fair Grounds Foundation. And the great thing is: you will find <a href=\"https:\/\/tea-of-life.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tea of Life<\/a> Just at Plus, Jumbo and Dekamarkt. The chai is a favourite here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-medium\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64279\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life-10x12.jpg 10w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life-300x375.jpg 300w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life-1000x1250.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-tea-of-life.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LocalTea<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tea from Dutch soil? Yes indeed! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.localtea.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LocalTea<\/a> does everything themselves - from growing to packaging - at their tea plantation in Zundert, Brabant. This makes the chain ultra-short and saves considerable CO2 emissions. The plants grow in unfired greenhouses and are processed locally into finished products. And that is not only more sustainable, but also fairer. LocalTea was created in response to the often opaque and unfair world of the traditional tea chain, in which large multinationals have too much power and workers on plantations hardly have a future. With their colourful boxes and quirky blends - such as Dutchess Grey, De Nacht Wacht and Koppie erbij - they show that sustainable tea can also be delicious and fun. For sale at Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Hanos, Sligro and via their own webshop, among others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-medium is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64285\" style=\"width:220px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea-10x12.jpg 10w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea-300x375.jpg 300w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea-1000x1250.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-local-tea.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wilder Land<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of getting spices from afar, they work at <a href=\"https:\/\/wilder-land.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wilder Land<\/a> together with Dutch farmers to sow native (un)herbs and flowers in fields and meadows. They pick some of these herbs for their tea, leaving the rest for bees, butterflies and other insects to enjoy - good for biodiversity in the Netherlands. The tea bags themselves are fully compostable and thus microplastic-free. The blends come in cheerful, colourful boxes - sometimes they almost look like an egg carton full of surprises. You'll find flavours like Offline Blend, Boswandeling and Sunny Boy that celebrate the flavours of the Dutch landscape. Wilder Land tea not only contributes to your cup of tea happiness, but also to nature restoration and local agriculture. You can buy their products at Crisp, specialty shops or via the webshop.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64289\" style=\"width:220px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land-10x12.jpg 10w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land-300x375.jpg 300w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land-1000x1250.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-wilder-land.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yogi Tea<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Yogi Tea - also known to some as <a href=\"https:\/\/yogi-life.com\/nl-NL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Yogi Life<\/a> - is about more than just flavour. This holistic tea brand is inspired by Ayurvedic philosophy, combining herbs and spices to balance body and mind. And they do so in a sustainable way: 100% organic ingredients, renewable energy production and, since 2023, all their locations worldwide are B Corp-certified. The tea bags are made of Manila hemp (abaca) and wood pulp: so no microplastics and unbleached. They also go the extra mile with their suppliers. They all use at least one form of regenerative agriculture - a way of farming that actively improves the soil and restores biodiversity, with even stricter requirements than organic farming. More than half even use several such methods. And with no less than 64 blends: from Licorice Mint to Classic Chai, your favourite is bound to be among them. You can find Yogi Tea at Jumbo, Holland &amp; Barrett, Albert Heijn, Ekoplaza and Crisp, among others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64293\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea-10x12.jpg 10w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea-300x375.jpg 300w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea-1000x1250.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-yogi-tea.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pukka Herbs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the best-known name in this list: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pukkaherbs.com\/uk\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pukka Herbs<\/a>. This colourful tea brand combines organic herbs with a clear mission for people and planet. Their tea bags are plastic-free, GMO-free - meaning no genetically modified ingredients have been used - and made from compostable material. The ingredients come from certified organic farms, and the brand is both Fairtrade and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fairforlife.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fair for Life<\/a> certified. The latter also guarantees good working conditions throughout the chain. Pukka is also actively committed to nature restoration: together with TreeSisters, they have already planted over 1.6 million trees. They are also working with the World Land Trust on projects in Guatemala, Vietnam and Mexico. And yes, they are part of Ekaterra, the tea company that evolved from Unilever - a fact that matters to some conscious buyers. Still, Pukka stays true to their sustainable ideals in execution, which is why we think Pukka definitely deserves a mention in this list. You can find them in (better) supermarkets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee-10x12.jpg 10w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee-300x375.jpg 300w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee-1000x1250.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-pukka-thee.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Clipper Tea<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Also a familiar name, we suspect: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clipper-teas.nl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clipper Tea<\/a>. This British brand was at the forefront of sustainability. They were the first in the UK to be Fairtrade certified and even helped to establish Fairtrade standards. They are now also B Corp-certified, their factory in Beaminster runs completely carbon-neutral and 98% of factory waste is recycled. In 2018, Clipper was the first tea company worldwide to switch to unbleached, plastic-free \u00e1nd GMO-free tea bags. And it's also socially sound: in Assam (India), where much of their tea comes from, more than 80% of tea pickers are women. And nice and easy: you can find Clipper at most supermarkets, such as Albert Heijn and Jumbo.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64295\" style=\"object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea-10x12.jpg 10w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea-300x375.jpg 300w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea-1000x1250.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/afbeeldingen.thegreenlist.nl\/uploads\/2026\/01\/duurzame-thee-clipper-tea.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 240px) 100vw, 240px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hampstead Tea<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hampsteadtea.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hampstead Tea<\/a> you don't just drink a cup of tea, you taste a story. Founder Kiran moved from India to the UK and couldn't find tea there that both tasted good and was free of pesticides or microplastics. So she decided to bring it to Europe herself. Her mission yielded wonderful results: unbleached, plastic-free tea bags, Fairtrade-certified ingredients and a strong focus on organic and regenerative agriculture. One of their tea gardens in India - the famous Maikaibari Tea Estate - was even the first in the world to be certified organic. Not only that: 66% of this estate consists of untouched rainforest, where tea grows among leguminous crops, cloves and bamboo. An ecosystem as it was meant to be. Oh, and the packaging? Works of art in themselves, with colourful illustrations of tigers, among other things.

According to tea sommelier Mari\u00eblla Erkens, it affects the taste of your tea. By dipping, you bring out bitter substances that make the tea less smooth. Better: just let your bag infuse calmly, without rushing back and forth.
