Do you ever feel like you want an alternative to the caffeine-fuelled, always-on, perma-connected day-to-day routines and stresses that seem to comprise modern life? At DIRTEA, the philosophy is to build better mind and body health through daily foundations, using functional foods and clean supplements people can trust.
DIRTEA’s aim is to harness ancient wisdom and science through modern innovation, making nature’s most powerful superfoods and compounds accessible, effective, and seamlessly integrated into modern life.
DIRTEA reimagines familiar drinks (coffee, cacao, matcha, chai) layered with ingredients that are as precise as they are powerful. Alongside base ingredients such as ceremonial-grade, stone-ground matcha from Shizuoka, Japan, heritage cacao and carefully sourced coffee, DIRTEA folds in functional mushrooms that aim do more than just wake you up – they’re also formulated to build clarity, resilience and balance.

About DIRTEA
Founded by brothers Andrew and Simon Salter, DIRTEA takes the world’s most loved daily drinks – coffee, matcha, cacao and chai – and elevates them with the addition of functional mushrooms.
Every blend begins with carefully sourced base ingredients, and into these, DIRTEA layers potent functional mushrooms. Each drink is formulated with targeted mushroom extracts and synergistic nutrients – supporting clear focus, balanced energy, immunity, recovery, and inner calm – all the while tasting unmistakably indulgent and familiar.
Guided by neuroscientist and MIT lecturer Dr Tara Swart, DIRTEA’s goal is to craft each of its formulas with purity, efficacy and scientific integrity at its core.
