Spill the Tea Candle | Black Tea + Shortbread + Lemon Syrup
"Tea at four. Secrets by five. Nobody leaves before the pot is empty."
Down past the roots and the jam jars, the tunnel opened onto a long table set for far too many guests. The teapot was still warm. The shortbread was still buttery. Every chair seemed to be saving a story about someone who wasn't there.
It's always tea-time at that table. Pour a cup and you're in on it.
Spill the Tea opens with strong black tea, steeped a little too long on purpose: dark, brisk, and dry at the edges. Then the sweets get passed around. There's buttery vanilla shortbread from the tin you keep for company. There's lemon maple syrup, bright and sticky, the kind of sweetness that makes people say more than they meant to.
It's a gourmand that isn't too sweet, warm in the middle and bright on top. It smells like a kitchen at four o'clock with the door open and a good secret on the table.
It's been our in-store favorite for a while. Now it's your turn to pull up a chair.
Burn it for: slow afternoons, book club, long phone calls, and anything said "just between us."

Which size should I choose? +
4 oz | 118 mL: a sweet way to try a new scent, and great for bathrooms and desks. 8 oz | 237 mL: the everyday favorite for bedrooms and offices. 16 oz | 473 mL: made for living rooms and open spaces, and the best value per ounce.
How do I get the best burn? +
On the first burn, let the wax melt all the way to the edge (about 1 hour per inch of width). This prevents tunneling and gives you the strongest scent throw. Trim the wick before every burn (about 1/8 inch for our wood wicks), and burn no more than 4 hours at a time.
What's the free mystery sample? +
Every order of $65 or more gets a surprise sample, hand-picked by us from our fragrance library. You don't choose it. That's half the fun, and it's how many customers find their next favorite.
Shipping +
Every order is made by hand in and shipped from the West Hills of Portland, OR. Current processing time is 4–5 business days (Mon–Fri) before your order ships.
