Maui Sun Tea is a company that was initially formed on the slopes of Haleakala, a large volcano in eastern Maui. Haleakala means “house of the sun,” and according to Hawaiian legend, was the location where the demigod Maui worked to capture the sun and slow it’s progress across the sky so that we could have more hours in the day. The ideals of Maui Sun Tea were built upon this imaginative tale of Hawaiian folklore, with also a strong desire to honor the beliefs upon which the Hawaiian culture was built. What evolved out of our main intention, was not only a company rooted around the culture and symbolism of the Hawaiian people, but also a medium that helps instill and nurture the values of lasting health and wellness— tea.
Our first tea was the Rejuvenation Blend, which was originally developed to assist people suffering with lung congestion due to the vog (a form of air pollution) that frequently drifts over the island. Over the years we have continued to expand and produce a dozen more formulations, all of which have been just as thoughtfully and deliberately designed. We are fully dedicated to the concept of a whole and healthy individual— a notion we seek to attain and uphold through the use of our teas. For this reason, each and every blend is carefully handcrafted, sustainably sourced, and consciously distributed in order to ensure that you are receiving the highest quality product possible.
There is nothing more important than your health. Our hope is that this mindset is respected and treasured. At Maui Sun Tea, it is our mission to encourage a brighter world for a better tomorrow by creating a culture of health and awareness revolving around a cup of tea!
