Cured Leaves Tea Co., Baltimore, launched its online tea company to offer top-quality loose-leaf teas carefully cultivated and ethically sourced from the heart of Africa and mindfully blended for the ultimate tea drinking experience, it says.
Cured Leaves Tea was born out of U.S. Army Veteran Paula Shaw's passion for the freedom she feels from yoga, a movement-based meditation practice, paired with the focused-based meditation practice of drinking tea. Shaw, a certified yoga instructor and Breath Master, began making tea blends for family members and clients a few years ago, but the demand grew quickly, the company says.
