About Me.
Konnichiwa! My name is Reiko Wake. As a Japanese Tea Ambassador and certified Japanese Tea Instructor since 2016, I am passionate about sharing my knowledge, preparing methods with a blend of traditional and modern tea practices and love for Japanese tea.
For me, tea is more than just a beverage, it’s a way of life. As a busy mom of two, I understand how important it is to take a moment to relax and recharge, and I believe that a cup of tea is the perfect way to do just that!
