Two teas, each scented with florals that embody their season:⁠
⁠
2026 harvest of Magnolia Oolong from 1,000 meters in Fujian, scented with spring's magnolia petals 🩷 ⁠
⁠
2025 harvest of Osmanthus Golden Tip from old-trees at 2,000 meters in Yunnan, layered with autumn's osmanthus blooms 🧡 ⁠
⁠
Each bottling is an expression of their harvest year. A time capsule and window into each vintage - I can't wait for you to try this year's expression! 🥂 ⁠

The 2026 release is here - Monday, October 19th 🍾

You can collect the new vintage on the Susurrus Shop page (link in bio)

All thanks to Steep Week ✨ watch the recap!

Hundreds of kilograms of tea leaves, emptied bag by bag.

Two beautiful batches, steeped slow.

The tanks, drained.

Layer upon layer, tasted steep by steep, until Osmanthus Golden Tip and Magnolia Oolong found their final blends.
 And then, the bottling line.
 Thank you for being on this journey with me!

Today’s press check with @mcc.wine is where the dream starts to become a reality ✨

Color, foil, emboss, gloss, each element is reviewed in every light until it is just right.

The 2026 Susurrus label carries a few subtle refinements that have been in the works for quite some time – the kind of details most people won’t consciously notice, but will most definitely feel.

The 2026 bottling is coming soon – I can’t wait for you to see it in person 🍾

I was asked to share my thoughts on the best tea steepers for the perfect cup in the @buysidewsj recent gift guide, "The Best Tea Steepers for Making the Perfect Cup" – full feature at the link in bio 🫖 ⁠
⁠
These tea pots played such a big part of my journey into tea and even in the development of my Susurrus Sparking Tea bottlings!⁠

I recently sat down with Dan Quiñones from @danquinones_brands on his podcast, The Pioneer's Approach, to talk about building Susurrus from the ground up — the wine world, the tea world, and the magical overlap of everything in between.⁠
⁠
Listen to learn why I call Susurrus "Wine's Sober Sister" 🍾 ⁠

Always on the hunt for non-alcoholic alternatives and was so excited to feature @susurrusteas at last nights Nightshade dinner and a new offering @twelvemaine —It certainly made an 8-course NA pairing less challenging. Everyone deserves to have something in their glass at the table. Huge shout to @ellyb35 for making it happen—welcome to Maine!

“Squeaky swings and tall grass, the longest shadows ever cast” 🎶

I couldn’t help but think about one of my favorite @deathcabforcutie songs “Summer Skin” during last week’s photoshoot with @emmakcreative 📸

Here’s a sneak BTS peek of the work and props that went into it, as well as the bit of magic we captured in her backyard ✨

I cannot wait to share the results with you soon. Hopefully it will inspire you to have your own, leisurely, late-summer’s day picnic with a book and bottles of Susurrus 🍾 📖 ☀️

What a beautiful April evening in the Valley—set in the garden of Rosemary Cakebread’s @gallicawine and hosted by Elyse Chambers of @wildplumbooks 📚
