The Story of Red's Zen Tea

At Red Zen Tea, our story is a personal journey of transformation, tranquility, and connection — a journey that started in the most unexpected way, during cherished tea times with my grandmother. As a child with ADHD, I often struggled to find calm and focus. Yet, in those quiet moments spent sharing tea with her, I experienced peace, clarity, and a deep sense of being cherished. It was the one time where the world seemed still and centered.

As I grew, that simple ritual became my anchor. My passion for tea blossomed into a deep curiosity during college, where I dedicated my studies in nutrition and wellness to exploring the ergogenic benefits of green tea. Captivated by its science-backed health properties, I embarked on a formal journey — from earning my Tea Sommelier certification to traveling the world as a Tea Master.

But tea is so much more than its health benefits. It holds the profound ability to cultivate inner peace and foster mindfulness. The key ingredient, L-theanine, promotes a state of relaxed focus — a serene clarity that I knew I wanted to share with the world.

Today, through Red Zen Tea, I’ve created artisan tea blends, workshops, and mindful tea tasting experiences to help others discover the serenity, beauty, and healing power of tea. Whether you’re seeking calm, wellness, or simply a moment of peace in your day, we invite you to join us in this timeless tradition.
