Solaris Tea has introduced its new bilingual loose-leaf tea packaging. This initiative was born from a desire to honour the native language of Éire, the depth of its heritage and plant folklore, and celebrate the re-awakening of Gaeilge in modern Irish culture.
To bring their grá for Gaeilge to life, the Solaris team collaborated with renowned Irish artist and illustrator Steve Doogan — acclaimed for his iconic artwork in Manchán Magan’s bestselling books on Irish language and folklore. Steve meticulously hand-carved the striking, bespoke lino-cut artwork featured on the pack. Far from a generic design, this packaging is a vibrant, tactile tribute to traditional plant folklore and our home on the Wild Atlantic Coast. Best of all, this stunning new look features 100% home-compostable packaging — making it entirely zero-waste and good for the planet.
By showcasing this beautiful, handmade local art alongside our native language, your shelves will display far more than premium tea. They will share an authentic story of heritage, craftsmanship, and a mindful lifestyle that your customers will be proud to take home.
Solaris is also exploring a modern take on tealicious mocktails and botanical infusions, rooted in traditional plant lore and inspired by nature. As part of their Summer Drinks campaign, Solaris Tea stars refreshing, 0% alc Hibiscus mocktails, Iced Peppermint with Matcha Cold foam and their new Lemon Harmony Electrolyte boost, with herbs that cleanse and refresh. Try their selection of recipes to liven up any soirée, afternoon tea party or jog through the park.
