Brewing Wellness with Purpose: The Story behind Tega Organic Tea
Posted on July 29 2025

In the picturesque Fraser Valley of British Columbia, a Canadian tea brand with African roots is quietly redefining what it means to sip with intention. Tega Organic Tea, founded by Liz Bandelin more than two decades ago, blends eco-luxury, wellness, and cultural heritage into every cup.
Growing up in South Africa, Liz was deeply inspired by the wild beauty, rich biodiversity, and traditional healing wisdom of the land. Rooibos tea—an antioxidant-rich, caffeine-free herbal infusion long revered for its health benefits—left a lasting mark. That deep-rooted love for nature and the healing power of plants became the seed from which Tega Organic Tea would flourish.
Today, Tega is a proudly family-run Canadian business offering “good-for-you” teas that taste as amazing as they are beneficial. Every blend is thoughtfully crafted using organic, Fairtrade, and carbon-neutral certified ingredients—always natural, never artificial. From bold Rooibos Espresso to calming Chamomile Mint Green Tea, each cup is a celebration of wellness, rooted in purpose.
