OUR ROOTS
Tea is a quiet ritual carried through generations of Japanese families, dating back to the first monks who brought tea to Japan and the samurai who made it their own. It is this heritage that Sera seeks to revitalize and share.
Sera grew up in Hawaii with Japanese heritage. That foundation led her to study tea in Kyoto, train at a Shaolin temple with monks, and discover the healing of traditional Chinese medicine. Tajima Botanica is Sera's offering to help others reconnect to their highest self through the sacred daily ritual of tea — a direct connection from the land to the body.
