About iLOLA Tea

iLOLA began with a simple belief: loose leaf tea should feel effortless, beautiful, and worth slowing down for. Founded during the 2020 lockdowns by husband-and-wife team Tim and Su-Mari Hill, iLOLA was created to reimagine the tea ritual for modern life — combining the quality of loose leaf tea with the simplicity people actually want every day. At the heart of iLOLA is the Tea Disc: a patented, hand-pressed disc of loose leaf tea bound together with proprietary probiotics. No bags. No microplastics. No measuring spoons. Just one disc, one cup, and a quieter way to begin or end the day. Each Tea Disc is designed to steep two to three times and is crafted to feel less like a convenience product and more like a personal ritual — whether that’s a calming evening tea, a morning reset, or a thoughtful gift shared with someone else. The collection spans wellness blends, estate teas, botanical infusions, and gifting rituals inspired by hospitality, travel, and the slower traditions of tea culture around the world. From English Breakfast and Moroccan Mint to the Nº.100 Reserve Collection, iLOLA balances familiarity with discovery. Today, iLOLA partners with boutique retailers, spas, hotels, gifting stores, and hospitality spaces looking for products that feel both elevated and approachable — products customers return to not only because they taste good, but because they change the rhythm of a day. This is loose leaf tea, simplified. No bags. No microplastics. Just better tea Read their story
