What is Point Loma Tea?
Nestled within the lively enclave of Liberty Station in San Diego, Point Loma Tea embodies the fusion of tradition and innovation in the realm of tea. Founded by Sherryann, whose childhood in Grenada was steeped in the culture of tea, Point Loma Tea is a realization of her lifelong dream. After a fulfilling career in the Navy, she acquired Point Loma Tea, infusing it with her passion for the artistry of tea. Drawing inspiration from her Caribbean roots, Sherryann has transformed Point Loma Tea into a beacon of diversity and community, welcoming tea enthusiasts from all walks of life.
