The thesis
Besteas = besties. Every tea ships with the honey, biscuit, or tool that's its best friend — the one that makes it taste more itself. Tea, with its plus-one.
Besteas is a play on "besties." The whole brand begins with the idea that tea is better with a best friend — a honey, a biscuit, a frother, a mug. Every box ships in pairs. That's the thesis.
