About Bigelow Tea Company
100 % family owned Fairfield, Conn.-based Bigelow Tea pioneered
the specialty tea category 65 years ago. Bigelow takes pride in its
heritage and successful growth from a one-product, entrepreneurial
venture into America's leading specialty tea company. The
Bigelow Tea line includes more than 100 varieties of flavored,
traditional, green, organic, herbal, decaffeinated teas and iced
teas- including America's number one specialty tea flavor,
"Constant Comment®."
In 2003, the company purchased and restored the Charleston Tea
Plantation. Based on Wadmalaw Island just south of Charleston,
South Carolina, the only tea plantation in America cultivates
several hundred thousand tea bushes that are descendants of bushes
brought from China during the 1800's. The Charleston Tea Plantation
has become a "must see" destination for tea lovers and tourists
alike who visit the area from around the world and appreciate
information and education about tea in addition to enjoying
American Classic Tea and products which are produced from the tea
grown on the premises.
Bigelow Tea products are available nationwide including grocery,
supercenters, mass merchandisers and health stores.
