The 1872 Clipper Tea Co.
A heritage Singapore tea brand with tea bars, boutiques and local-inspired blends.
The 1872 Clipper Tea Co. is a Singapore heritage tea brand that now combines retail tea, giftable blends and modern tea bars. Its current tea bar and boutique locations include ION Orchard, Jewel Changi Airport and IOI Central Boulevard Towers, with additional travel retail and Botanic Gardens outlets. The range covers single-origin teas, Clipper Crafted blends, local-inspired flavours such as kaya toast and teh tarik, and everyday boxed teas. Its tea bars use precision brewing and are positioned as welcoming spaces for tasting, shopping and learning.
The 1872 Clipper Tea Co. is strongest when you want a Singapore tea gift that still feels usable, not just decorative. The new tea bar format gives the brand more credibility as a drinking destination, especially with precise brewing and visible retail. Its local-flavour blends are fun and approachable. The trade-off is that traditionalists may find some blends more playful than profound, so it is better for discovery and gifting than serious aged-tea collecting.
It balances heritage, modern retail access and Singapore-flavoured blends better than most local packaged tea brands.
