“Each tea has a proper brewing method… if you put that little bit of intention in, the finished cup is just so much more enjoyable.” 

Tea is one of the most enduring rituals in our daily lives. A pause, a comfort, a habit passed quietly from one generation to the next.

In this episode, I'm joined by Emeric Harney of Harney & Sons, the family-run American tea company known for its dedication to quality, craftsmanship, and tradition. Together, we go beyond nostalgia and into the inner workings of a heritage brand, from how their tea is sourced and blended to the relationships built with growers around the world, to the discipline required to create consistency in a product shaped by nature.

Emeric shares what it means to steward a multi-generational company, how art and science come together in the process, and why tea remains an enduring ritual.
