BELLOCQ Tea Atelier has turned seven years of sourcing and blending the world’s finest teas and botanicals into a devoted and articulate history of tea connoisseurship. Behind the hidden storefront in a quiet corner of Brooklyn, New York, single-estate teas are offered exclusively whole leaf, while signature organic tea and herbal infusions are carefully created by hand. 
Magnificent rows of yellow canisters line the shelves of the atelier and draped hand-painted canvases share space with hanging ferns and moss. A serendipitous find for the earnest wanderer, the business is devoted to the luxury of fine tea and exploration of the senses with an unwavering adherence to excellence.

The founders of the award-winning company met while working at a well-known lifestyle brand,  Heidi Johannsen Stewart on the publishing side as a food editor and photo stylist and Michael Shannon as a product designer. “Before Bellocq we were often traveling around the world, discovering incredible tea and sharing it with each other," Michael explains. This delightful habit became ritual and, along with a passionate appreciation of traditional artisan work, ignited the idea for a business.
Bellocq’s carefully selected, single-origin offerings originate from the finest estates around the world and are exclusively full leaf, often organic, and sourced from high elevation gardens. “Our selections are the result of rigorous sourcing, cultivated relationships and lengthy tastings,” says co-founder Heidi. “The unifying factor is exceptional quality and a beautiful flavor profile.”  

Asserting the notion that the finest teas can be an everyday luxury, Bellocq’s unique methodology is redefining the luxury tea business to suit the evolving and sophisticated spirit of the modern client.   Bellocq Teas are now found in the finest shops, restaurants, spas and hotels around the world.
