John was introduced to the world of tea by Stanley Mason, who turned to creating his craft tea blends after years in the corporate world of tea in London & New York. Over time, Mason taught John both the art and business of the craft. Starting production out of his basement in 1983, John began his journey in mastering the art of tea blending. Serving his distinctive blends with inn guests, he soon found they were coming back for more.

The company, which sources, blends, and packages their product from start to finish, has grown from their original six teas, to more than three hundred. John brought in his two sons: Mike & Paul.
