Origins

Tielka sources ingredients from Australia and around the world with a focus on direct trade where possible.

Tielka's black and white teas are sourced from the Yunnan Province in China. Tielka's green and oolong teas are sourced from the Hubei Province in China. We have been partnering with these same Fairtrade producers since Tielka was founded in 2009.

We are very proud to source some locally grown ingredients in various regions in Australia, including lemon myrtle (QLD), and lavender (VIC). We are gradually increasing locally grown ingredients in our products as they become available and we are able to integrate them into our products.

Tielka sources natural bergamot oil from Italy.

All other ingredients are sourced through local certified organic importers from various locations around the world.

International restrictions and disruptions due to COVID-19 are still impacting most postal services.

Due to limited flights, parcels typically spend a few days progressing through a queue at the airport before they are placed on an international flight.

As the parcel moves through the queue, the tracking update reads "processed by air carrier".

This update may be repeated many times or may not change for several days.

This is normal.

It can seem like your order is stuck, however, it is waiting to be placed on a flight.

Once a parcel is placed on a flight, delivery usually occurs within a few days.

We usually dispatch orders within 24-48 hours.

For destinations within Australia, standard shipping is 4-8 business days from dispatch. Express shipping is 2-3 business days from dispatch.

Some orders are sent as "letters" not "parcels" (e.g. samples, tea subscriptions). If an order is sent as a "letter", it won't have a tracking number. Please allow 7-10 days for delivery from dispatch.
