Canopy

A Conversation That Changed Everything

Sometimes the best discoveries arrive sideways. A conversation about childhood spring break memories took an unexpected turn, and somewhere in the middle of it, I found myself learning about a green tea from Kenya that almost nobody knows exists. I ordered samples immediately. One sip and I was in love.

Kenya is not known for green tea. Their legacy is bold black tea, grown for the tea bag and shipped across the world. But on a small farm along the mountain slopes of Kenya's historic tea-grown region, one family has quietly embarked on a special adventure, a journey to bring us a green tea that is genuinely unlike anything else in the category. Sassy, sweet and full of quiet surprises.

Grown Where the Mist Lives

Canopy is grown at high elevation in the misty Kenyan mountains, where cool air, rich soil and equatorial light create the conditions for something beautifully vibrant. The name says it all. This is a tea that feels like standing beneath a canopy of leaves with sunlight filtering through, green and alive and quietly electric.

Tasting Notes

Soft earthiness opens into bright notes of green apple, kiwi and spinach, with a texture that is surprisingly silky and a colour that is beautifully vibrant in the cup. Clean, fresh and a little unexpected. Exactly the way the best discoveries always are.

Infused with Intention

Every Island Elixir tea, whether our own craft blend or a lovely single-origin like this Kenyan green, is infused with Reiki energy. Canopy is no exception. This is a tea for the moments when you want to feel alive to the world around you, curious, open and quietly delighted by what you find. May you feel refreshed, grounded and gently surprised by joy.

Let Steeping Calm become the ritual brings joy to your heart and serenity to your spirit.
