We go to places so remote or overlooked that few are willing to do the work required. We're not chasing the most famous origins or the next coffee trend. We work with small farming communities who have good products and the willpower to share them with the world, but who've been left aside by the mainstream coffee industry. Their beans may not carry the prestige of Jamaica, and their production might still need modernising, but that's ok. Their story, their coffee and their resilience make them Renegade.

Each cup is a quiet rebellion — keeping traditions alive, giving determined farmers another chance, and making sure their voices are finally heard.

    THIS IS NOT OUR FIRST REBELLION AGAINST THE MAINSTREAM...

    In 2017, we left our careers in management and marketing in Estonia and Lithuania to do something different—more meaningful and connected to nature. We went to Georgia on a mission to revive abandoned tea plantations and to build the most transparent tea farm out there.

    Without any prior experience or knowledge of tea, we rehabilitated 40 hectares of organic tea plantations, learned how to make award-winning teas, and built a community of more than 2000 people who now receive their yearly tea from Renegade Tea Estate.

    With our Georgian tea farm well established and increasingly taken care of by our local team members, we are ready to tell the stories of other forgotten treasures.
