Volition Tea

An Asian-woman-owned business introducing single-origin loose leaf teas from China. For centuries tea farmers have been hidden away by major tea corporations due to influence of imperialism, xenophobia, and lack of accountability. Volition Tea is here to amplify the voice of tea farmers who have dedicated their entire life to sustainable farming. Operating in full transparency, we hope to de-commoditize tea and cultivate empathy across global communities.
