"Drinking a daily cup of tea will surely starve the apothecary"
Chinese Proverb
teapigs are on a mission to get UK tea drinkers to "drink real tea". Real tea = quality whole leaf tea, not the dusty stuff found in most of the nation's paper teabags. That's why our special tea temples contain only whole leaf teas, whole berries, whole herbs and whole flowers - no dust in sight! Louise the tea taster says... "Tea drinkers of the UK deserve better. Drink real tea."
To help spread the real tea mission and bring it to life, we'd like you to produce a design for a real tea print. The winning print will be displayed in cafes and delis that serve and sell teapigs real tea nationwide. We'll also sell the winning print in the teapigs online gadget shop where all profit will go to the Noel Orphanage in Gisenyi, Rwanda - that's where most of the tea our signature blend, english breakfast, comes from. And if the design is successful as a poster, it could be used in a range of items (eg: tea towels, mugs) at a later stage.
We're running this competition in partnership with our friends at YSHLondon.com. They're an online magazine and design community aimed at student and graduate designers.
