Haʻa means humble — and this tea carries that feeling with strength and an open heart.

Keep the good feeling vibes going with our Haʻa Ritual Offering — featuring a 4 oz Haʻa Cacao Tea, Haʻa Travel Size, gold or silver tea strainer, and artisan-crafted Housetray™.

A quiet, heart-opening ritual for home and on the go.

Behind this cup is a friendship rooted in music, creativity, and community — a journey from hip hop to permaculture and entrepreneurship. Kenta and PaizLee first connected through the Honolulu music scene, building community through art, conversation, and a shared intention to make meaningful long-term contributions through creativity and hospitality.

Together with his wife Julia, Kenta began cultivating cacao in Laupāhoehoe on Hawaiʻi Island. What grew from that intention became Haʻa — a small farm rooted in humility, where cacao is tended within a living agroforest of more than 150 tropical species, guided by permaculture, regenerative practices, and deep respect for Hawaiʻi.

Hawaiʻi-grown cacao represents only about 0.02% of the world’s supply — a rarity shaped by place, climate, and the hands that care for it. Through this small batch offering, that rarity is approached with reverence rather than scale.

Brewed from sun-dried cacao husks, this tea offers a gentle earthy warmth — subtly chocolatey, naturally caffeine-free, and deeply grounding. Each cup carries the imprint of that way of being: patient, intentional, and in harmony with its surroundings.

Designed in Topanga, California and artisan-crafted in porcelain ceramic by skilled makers in Mexico, Housetray™ was created from a simple belief: everyday rituals deserve intentional design. More than a decorative object, each tray is designed to support moments of presence, hospitality, and connection — holding tea tools, incense, matches, and everyday ritual objects upright and within reach.

This collaboration also honors a longtime friendship with the founder of Housetray™ — celebrating the beauty of everyday rituals, reciprocity, and intentional living through a shared offering rooted in creativity, community, and care.

Together, this offering becomes more than tea.

It is an invitation to slow down, stretch time in good company, and return to the quiet beauty of where ideas, friendships, and rituals grow.
