camellia sinesis var. assamica
an evergreen, multi-stemmed tree that reaches upwards of 15m tall. a large leaf varietal camellia sinesis that grows wild in the mountains of south east china, for north vietnam & laos. when consumed, this plant can effectively sharpen the senses whilst simultaneously grounding & calming oneself.it is through the procurement, production and distribution of tea from my indigenous home & the sharing artefacts intended for a life of ceremony, that I seek to bridge the way and story of our ancient cultures into the hearts of the present.

tea in ceremony
dear community of Naarm,
I come with news to share
This coming week (Jan 02) will be the last dates I will be serving tea for the next little while here.
In the following week, I look wayward to Asia to continue my studies, receive and refine what I wish to offer in this bountiful world.
This feels an exciting embrace, as I begin to reflect and trace back to the never ceasing path of the student and my desire to scale the mountain once more.
To uncover new heights beyond the clouds, if we may.
I look forward to sharing the space on the other side
🤍
