What started as a simple idea to create a coffee-like ritual that’s gentle on the gut and kind to the mind now proudly carries its own mark.
It’s more than a trademark it’s a small reminder that every idea, brewed with heart, can find its own identity.
To everyone who’s believed in the vision of calmer cups and healthier rituals thank you for being part of this journey. 💙
Here’s to many more mindful sips ahead....

Mākereti Papakura, believed to be the first Indigenous woman to study at the University of Oxford, has been awarded a posthumous degree certificate.
Papakura sadly passed away in 1930, just weeks before she was due to present her thesis. Her research was later published as The Old-Time Māori — the first ethnographic study written by a Māori author.
We hope this brings a smile!
