We're excited to offer membership to our 2025 Esprit de Corp tea club.
By signing up for an annual membership, you’ll receive exclusive teas and teaware in 2 shipments across the year. These products represent the cutting edge of our research and experimentation in the Yunnan mountains, and the outputs of our best minds in the hardware division. You'll also receive other benefits detailed below.
Membership to 2025 Esprit de Corp is strictly limited to 100 places
Our inaugural 2023 Esprit de Corp was launched with a limited capacity of 50 memberships. In response to extreme demand following its first year, 2024 Esprit de Corp was released with an increased membership of 75 spots in total.
From this year onwards, all future Esprit de Corp memberships will have an absolute limit of 100 places. This allows us to appropriately handle the logistics involved, and most importantly, to continue to press enough of each tea produced for the club — some tea tree groves only produce 20 to 30kg of material in total each spring!
For the 2025 club, we plan to continue pressing unique, no-compromise puerh tea cakes, and offer unique and useful teaware and accessories, that will serve you well in any scenario. Any hardware we produce will also complement any existing teaware pieces from past years of the club, if you have them.
Membership to 2025 Esprit de Corp includes:
All teas pressed for Esprit de Corp follow an ethos of being high-end (i.e. old-tree), experimental, unique productions that we could not easily produce for mainstream retail and purchase.
Most importantly, none of the teas or other items from Esprit de Corp will be available outside of the club - they are all one-off productions made exclusively for members that year. If you're a committed pu-erh drinker, sign up and come along for the ride.
The first shipment will be as soon as possible after the spring season in Yunnan, comprising of a premium 200g raw pu-erh cake along with an accompanying zine and other goodies. We estimate this will be sent out in June.
The second shipment will be toward the end of the year and will contain the remaining 2 pu-erh cakes (comprised of one raw and one ripe), as well as teaware, and the final accompanying zine. We estimate this will be sent out in November.
Both shipments are delivered with free shipping worldwide including tracking
Only one membership per person with a hard limit of 100 memberships per year. Please note that you can purchase additional memberships as gifts, please leave a note at checkout. Membership is not refundable, transferrable, or cancellable once purchased. If there are any issues with shipments (i.e non-delivery, damaged goods, etc) we will ensure replacement and re-delivery with no added cost.
Membership does not auto-renew, so you won’t be automatically billed or signed up for next year's tea club membership. We will get in touch directly with existing members at the start of 2026 with the first offer to renew, and if any spots open up we will release those memberships for purchase to the general public on our online store. Once membership is purchased, we will be in touch with more information on what to expect, as well as instructions on how to set up your membership details.
Any variations in Esprit de Corp pricing is based on the shipping address country at checkout. This accounts for the difference in shipping costs to each particular location, as shipping a package from Australia to an international address - for example in Europe - will cost more than shipping the very same package domestically, within Australia.
