Bird & Blend is the choice for flavoured-blend fans who want to restock favourites rather than be surprised. Its Subscribe & Save gives 10% off your chosen teas with subscription shipping at an indicative £1.99 (versus a standard £3.95), and you can skip, pause, change frequency or cancel anytime through the subscription portal. The draw is the range: this is an award-winning UK blender known for dessert-style and wellness flavoured blends, with a matcha subscribe option and a large physical shop network, plus carbon-neutral, compostable packaging. Worth knowing up front — and the reason it isn't higher for discovery-seekers — is that the model is now subscribe-and-save on teas you choose; the brand's historic curated 'Tea Tasting Club' surprise box (which delivered around three 20g blends, roughly 30 cups) appears to have been superseded, so treat any 'surprise box' framing as historic. The trade-off versus the single-origin picks is style and intent: you gain playful flavoured blends and a standing discount, but give up curated single-estate discovery.

- Standing 10% discount for restocking chosen blends, with cheaper subscription shipping
- Big range of flavoured, dessert-style and caffeine-free blends, plus a matcha option

- The curated 'surprise me' box appears to have been retired — it is now subscribe-and-save on teas you pick
- Not for purists who prefer unflavoured single-estate tea
