About

My name is Tamika Jeanty, and I’ve always been surrounded by the comforting presence of tea—the fragrance, the taste, and, most importantly, the healing benefits. Tea has been a constant in my life, and I can vividly remember coming home from school, dropping my backpack on the table, and finding my mother preparing tea. On the kitchen counter, I’d see dried leaves laid out carefully to dry. Those childhood moments spent with my mother, watching her make tea, formed the foundation for my passion and the inspiration behind Taomi Tea N Treats.

Taomi is a beautiful fusion of my name, Tamika, and my sister's name, Naomi, pronounced "Tay-Omi." The inspiration for Taomi Tea N Treats stemmed from childhood memories of watching my mother prepare tea. For her, tea wasn’t just a beverage; it was a tool for healing, self-indulgence, and connection with loved ones.

Even now, as an adult, my mother continues this tradition, finding solace in a cup of tea on the couch. Growing up in my Haitian culture, tea was a cornerstone of healing practices, cherished for its natural remedies. As a child, I would host imaginary tea parties, sipping from a small pink mug and already understanding the magic a cup of tea could bring.

The idea of starting a tea business initially surfaced as a tribute to my mother's delicious blends. However, the deeper I delved into the world of tea, the more I felt called to create something for myself. I pondered the therapeutic properties of tea and knew that if I were to embark on this journey, it would bear the name Taomi.

At the age of 17, my passion for tea became a necessity when I began experiencing health issues. Doctors prescribed medications, but nothing worked. Tea was the only thing that provided relief. My mom and grandmother made special teas to help me heal, and together, they discovered that a bacteria in my stomach was causing severe pain. Tea became the one consistent remedy for my symptoms and was also instrumental in calming my anxiety.

All in all, the tea blends I offer are ones I grew up with. I created five signature blends that have helped me with my stomach issues and anxiety. When I decided to turn my love for tea into a business, I thought about individuals like me—those with sensitive stomachs, those who struggle with anxiety, and those who want to incorporate tea into their self-care rituals and daily lives.

When it was time to think about what makes Taomi Tea N Treats different, I immediately thought about all the creative ways to enjoy and elevate the tea experience.

The "Tea N Treats" aspect is integral because a delightful cup of tea serves as a reminder to cherish and nurture ourselves. Tea has played a pivotal role in my own digestive healing and mental well-being.
