About Us

At SEI MEE TEA®, tea is more than a passion — it’s our life. Our mission began back in 2001, when our founder, Kiyomi Koike, learned that her husband had been diagnosed with colon cancer. As a Japanese native, she knew about the restorative powers of green tea. She encouraged her husband to begin drinking 10 cups of green tea every day. However, he quickly realized it was not a sustainable option for him due to the crude “hay-like” taste he found unappealing.

Kiyomi started researching alternative ways of ingestion. What she discovered led her to develop SEI MEE TEA’s signature product, Organic Sencha Green Tea Powder, Edible Green®. By consuming the entire leaf in powder form, Kiyomi’s husband could get the most antioxidant benefits without the unpleasant, bitter taste of steeped low-quality green tea and the side effects of caffeine.

Now, Kiyomi’s husband has been cancer-free for nearly two decades. The couple believes the Sencha powder tea was an essential tool for his recovery, as it provided him with the enhanced antioxidant power of powdered green tea and a powerful ritual for him to feel he is in control of his life.able by appt.
