This is a tremendous honor, as our unique Maui grown teas and māmaki herbal tisane are all lovingly grown and processed by hand at our farm in Kula, Maui, Hawaii. We began growing tea (Camellia sinensis) in 2013 along with māmaki (a caffeine-free native Hawaiian nettle). We grow and source all of our teas and tisanes using organic and sustainable agricultural practices, with native Hawaiian plants such as koa and ohia trees forming a canopy over our tea plants. When available, we have limited, small batches of our Maui grown Haleakalā black tea for purchase via our website. We also have our delicious herbal māmaki available for purchase through our PONOinfusions site.
Mahalo nui loa,
Andrea and Alex de Roode,
Owners and Farmers, PONOinfusions and The Maui Tea Farm

Our farm is located in the rich upcountry Maui agricultural region of Kula, and we purchased and began to plant our tea on our farm in 2014. Our farm and tea workshop is situated at 4,000 feet elevation, 30 minutes away from Haleakala National Park. At our farm, you will notice that the air is cool and the climate cloud-kissed, making it a perfect location for premium high mountain tea. We are pleased to begin offering small batches of our handmade Maui grown black tea for purchase starting mid-2017. With our unique location and gorgeous views, we also welcome tea fans to follow our growth and progress on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.
