Mamaki grows wild almost nowhere on earth but here in Hawai‘i — a native plant in the nettle family, though entirely without the sting. We harvest and dry the leaves the same way we treat our coffee: carefully, and close to the source. Caffeine-free and naturally smooth, it has been part of island life and wellbeing for generations.
Brewed, it’s robust and refreshing, with a deep, almost ruby color — long valued in Hawaiian tradition for its antioxidants and its grounding, restorative character. Steep it hot to wind down in the evening, or pour it over ice on a warm afternoon.
Tasting notes: robust and earthy, with soft herbal sweetness and a clean finish.
Best brewed: steep hot 5–7 minutes — or make it iced:
- Steep a quarter of the bag in a quart of boiling water, cover, and let it rest overnight.
- In the morning, drain the leaves — you’ll have a robust, deep-red tea.
- Add water to taste, pour over ice, and finish with lemon and simple syrup for a bright “Mamaki Palmer.”

Mamaki Tea
I really enjoy this tea. It is loose leaf so you can make a cup or a full press. The packaging stores the tea very well. I like this brand especially because it works very well in my rice water mamaki tea.

Since I can't have caffeine, this tea is great because it is naturally caffeine free.

Mamaki Tea
In September 2025, My husband and I did the tour at Hala Tree. Learned all about coffee. Very informative. I am a tea drinker. Sampled Mamaki Tea for the 1st time. I just love it. Purchased 1 bag to bring back home. Ran out and ordered a few more bags.

Mamaki Tea
Health wise, I need tea that truly does not contain caffeine, not tea that was decaffeinated. This tea truly contains no caffeine and has a wonderful taste
