About Us

Mindfulness isn’t a trend, it’s who (what) you are.

Who Are We You Ask?

Definitely not your average, ordinary tea drinkers or ‘tea enthusiasts’. We speak and breathe the brew–in fact, that’s what we do all day. We’re on a mission, and one mission only: to inspire a sense of connection to our truest selves through mindful brewing. At Tea Ami, we are your ‘tea friends.’

There has been plenty of research that shows we are more stressed and anxious than ever. Mindfulness is incredibly important, especially now. We provide people an opportunity to find a mindfulness practice that actually works for them.

‘The friend you didn’t know you needed’

We believe that tea leads to connectedness to ourselves and nature. Tea Ami isn’t just about showing you a selection of delightful teas and some cool teawares. It’s about cultivating a practice that helps ground you and bring you to the present moment (with a cute little friend by your side).

Meet Nikolai

Steeped in ancient traditions, our story begins with Nikolai, who discovered his deep passion for brewing in college, when joining his campus’ tea club.

Out of a passion and curiosity for long-standing customs that seem lost today, Tea Ami was born to revitalize the age-old tea practice.

“All of us have been there. Stressed out, nothing seems to soothe us, just a downward spiral of stress that compounds into more stress, by stressing about stress. Then I learned about brewing tea mindfully. It helped me find a moment to slow down and gave me a physical object for my busy mind to focus on.”
