Java Tea Co is a coffee-inspired, handmade, loose leaf tea company. We are a small, homegrown operation, locally owned and operated by Preston Caffrey and Dave Cook in the awesome North County San Diego beach city of Encinitas.
We handcraft our products with organic teas, herbs, flavors and spices, creating a drink that emulates our favorite premium coffee beverages... but they are all made from tea - very, very healthy tea.
It is not just the finest ingredients, but the craft in blending. Precision and knowledge to formulate a balance for all 5 senses. Teas that embrace innovation, but love tradition. Carefully made by humans for humans. Ethically harvested. Brilliant to drink.
It was a sabbatical in Italy that birthed the nature, mission, vision and revolution of Java Tea Co. The espresso speed of life sounds fast, but in Italy, it is a moment frozen in time, an artful appreciation, where the consumer becomes a connoisseur of life, taking in a few minutes while they enjoy their beverage - never to go, never grande. This slow down mentality was incredibly inspiring to us. Made by human hands and not one-button-push robots. Small in size but massive in flavor. Taking the time to take in the moment. This is our DNA. Coffee-inspired teas, brewed like your favorite coffee beverages, hand crafted and designed for human connection.
