About Water Over Leaves

Rooted in a lineage of herbalist tradition and ceremonial tea rituals, Water Over Leaves is inspired by the quiet moments of stillness that allow us to reveal our true beauty to the world. Our mission is to offer you a cup of tea that provides delight and rapture in every sip, and inspires you to cultivate peaceful moments where insights arise and miracles unfold.

Our handcrafted herbal teas are carefully blended in micro batches. Every mixture is specifically formulated to be therapeutically effective, beautiful, and delicious.

Camellia sinensis is our muse. Each new addition to the Camellia sinensis menu is thoughtfully curated according to quality, grade, flavour, and origin. All teas are ethically sourced, primarily from multi-generation tea farms. Rare and exquisite high elevation spring teas are especially celebrated.

Water Over Leaves is located on an acre of land on the North Shore of Nelson, BC. Our vision is to eventually open our tea studio to the public allowing you to immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Water Over Leaves.

A state of mind that occurs by being observant and residing in stillness

About Mélanie Pulla

As a passionate herbalist and artisan tea maker, I am dedicated to helping you cultivate quiet moments of stillness that connect you with your true self, and allow you to express your unique beauty to the world. Through the alchemy of handcrafted herbal teas and the art of herbal tea ceremony, I facilitate moments of self reflection and personal transformation.

My passion for herbalism was ignited at a young age through my love of tea, and evolved alongside my pursuit of spiritual growth. My formal herbal studies began at the California School of Herbal Studies (2000) and the Southwest School of Botanical Medicine in Arizona (2002), culminating in a BSc in Wellness and Alternative Medicine from Northern Vermont University in 2006.

In 2008, I embarked on a transformative journey through Southeast Asia, immersing myself in the art of tea ceremony, exploring tea houses, and visiting tea gardens. This experience introduced me to the concept of Tea Mind, which now lies at the heart of my philosophy with Water Over Leaves.

Many years later, Water Over Leaves Tea Company was founded, coinciding with my family's move to Nelson, BC. I now devote my time to crafting exquisite tea blends and cultivating quiet moments of tea rapture.

Through Water Over Leaves, I invite you to explore the profound beauty and serenity that a thoughtfully crafted tea and mindful ritual can bring into your life.
