ESTE is a San Diego company specializing in Japanese tea. We share the everyday ritual and quiet pleasure of a well-made cup, alongside the range of flavors that makes Japanese tea worth exploring.

Our aim is to connect others with the thoughtful expression of the terroir through unique production styles across the regions of Japan. Together, we would like to celebrate the great effort that is taken to create this product.

Our catalog connects you to the terroir and craft of small producers across Japan, each working in their own regional tradition. We feature growers who honor those traditions, push them forward, and above all, make delicious tea.

OUR POP UP EVENTS

At our events, we serve teas brewed in the traditional way along with a rotating menu of seasonal drinks. Those seasonal drinks draw on our team’s different cultural backgrounds, using tea as a canvas to bring those experiences into the cup.
