0.75 oz | Waiehu, Maui
This ʻulu + māmaki herbal tea is grown under the Maui sun, harvested by hand, and prepared in small batches. This premium blend tastes slightly sweet, yet earthy, with a hint of ʻulu flavor. It goes down smooth and is delicious served warm or chilled.
"We strive to not only nourish our community, but also foster a cultural connection that feeds people’s naʻau (heart)."
"Both ‘ulu and māmaki play an important part in Hawaiian culture. Māmaki is endemic to Hawaiʻi, which means it’s found here and nowhere else in the world. It was traditionally used for good health and overall well being, and some people experience a calming effect after drinking māmaki herbal tea.
ʻUlu is a “canoe crop” introduced by the first Polynesian settlers to these islands centuries ago. It is a practical and spiritual crop that appears throughout Hawaiian lore, speaking to its cultural significance. Like māmaki, ʻulu herbal tea is known to have calming properties." - Polipoli Farms
