Welcome to our studio & tasting room

Located at six mile, on the north shore of Nelson, BC. We specialize in Korean tea ceremony,
rare and high elevation Camellia sinensis teas, and meticulously handcrafted therapeutic herbal teas.

 
 

Tucked away on an acre of forested land just outside Nelson, BC, the Water Over Leaves Tea Studio is a space for stillness, ritual, and reconnection. Founded by herbalist Mélanie Pulla, the studio invites you to slow down and experience tea as a path to presence, beauty, and healing.

Whether you are drawn to the quiet depth of Korean tea ceremony, curious to explore the sensory world of rare, high-elevation Camellia sinensis, or seeking a personalized consultation to support your wellness journey, this space was created for you.

Offerings include:

  • Korean Tea Ceremony
    Rooted in tradition, this meditative experience is a gentle ritual of slowness and reverence. Sip rare teas in contemplative stillness, observe the grace of each movement, and leave feeling grounded, nourished, and awakened.

  • Ceremonial Tea Tastings
    Discover our curated selection of artisan teas, from handcrafted herbal blends to exquisite single-origin Camellia sinensis. Camellia tastings highlight tasting notes, terroir, and origin, while herbal tea tastings emphasize therapeutic benefits, nuanced flavour, and the beauty of botanical formulation.

  • Personalized Tea Consultations
    Work one-on-one with Mélanie to create custom herbal formulations tailored to your unique health and wellness goals. With a background in wellness science, years of herbal study, and a deep spiritual connection to the plant world, Mélanie weaves together evidence-based practice and intuitive insight. Her approach is both grounded and reverent, blending the therapeutic with the sacred to craft teas that are effective, delicious, and beautiful. You’ll leave with a tea of your choice, and receive your personalized blend and accompanying meditation within one week.

By appointment only. Reserve your experience and enter a world where tea is more than a beverage—it’s a way of being.
