Our Story
Nestled in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, we draw inspiration from our region’s breathtaking biodiversity and our transformative travels around the world. The rich tea traditions found across the globe deepened our passion for premium organic teas and the timeless ritual of tea drinking.
Appalachian DiviniTEA is the combination of our passion for tea paired with our desire to share herbal and holistic wellness practices to help you nourish your mind, body, and spirit with every sip.
Our organic tea blends are handcrafted with intention in small batches to ensure freshness and quality. We use 100% certified organic teas and herbs in all our blends, and locally foraged mushrooms when possible.
Our specialty lies in herbal teas and mushroom teas, crafted with traditional wisdom and modern wellness practices.
Whether you’re looking to boost your immunity, relax after a long day, or support overall vitality, our blends are designed with your well-being in mind.
In addition to our signature herbal creations, we offer a curated selection of premium organic white tea, green tea, black tea, pu’erh tea, and oolong tea to suit every palate. Each tea is a celebration of the rich history of tea culture intertwined with modern holistic insights.
“Tea has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Some of my fondest childhood memories involve sitting at the table with my grandmother, sipping tea and listening to her stories about her travels around the world. Those moments sparked two lifelong passions: a love for tea and a deep curiosity about the world.
In 2019, my partner Nikki and I took a leap of faith, boarding a one-way flight to Asia. We spent months backpacking through the countryside, visiting tea houses and wandering through sprawling tea fields. It was there, amidst the lush landscapes and centuries-old tea traditions, that my connection to tea deepened in a way I hadn’t felt before. We learned firsthand about the cultivation, processing, and artistry behind every leaf, and it was then that the seeds for Appalachian DivinTEA were planted.
When we returned to the U.S., I was called to share my passion with others. I dedicated myself to sourcing the highest quality teas and botanicals, and expanded my knowledge of herbalism to create blends that not only taste great but are also great for you.
And so, Appalachian DiviniTEA was born.
Today, we’re thrilled to share these carefully crafted blends with you, inviting you to experience the same love for tea that has shaped our journey.”
