Inspired by the bush tea of the U.S. Virgin Islands, Paromi Tea makes full-leaf teas in pyramid sachets, blending carefully selected ingredients in small batches. Founder Paul Rosen began the company after studying with a Chinese tea master, and today works with an herbalist, a master blender, and his brother Gregg to source teas from estates around the world. Paromi protects its blends in reusable opaque glass jars and uses plant-based, nylon-free sachets designed to preserve their freshness and aroma.
