STORY OF HERBAL IMMENSE
About us
Founded locally in Virgin Gorda, Herbal Immense Teas takes us back to what our elders throughout the Caribbean mastered for centuries. A well-known concept that capitalizes using our local herbs, spices, and plants to make flavorful, yet healthy beneficial teas with a youthful twist.
​
​Herbal Immense started with simple boxed packaging, but as our vision for a more refined and sustainable brand grew, so did our commitment to quality. We’ve since upgraded to elegant, eco-friendly tea tubes made from recycled materials, ensuring that our packaging reflects the luxury and care infused into every blend. This transition not only elevates the unboxing experience but also aligns with our mission to create premium teas with a thoughtful, sustainable touch. Every detail, from the beautifully crafted tubes to the naturally sourced ingredients inside, is designed to bring you a sip of indulgence while honoring the essence of nature.

Meet Sharayah
Founder of Herbal Immense
Born and raised in Tortola, British Virgin Islands, I enjoyed an adventurous and exciting childhood filled with unique experiences. Traveling the world from an early age allowed me to learn new things and grow from countless enriching moments. My educational journey began at Althea Scatliffe Primary School in Tortola, followed by secondary education in Leeds, England. Later, I transferred to the United States, where I graduated from Pine Forest High School in May 2016. At that time, I envisioned a career in Psychology, aspiring to earn a degree and become a licensed psychologist.
​
However, life took a different path. At just 18 years old, I started Herbal Immense Teas, inspired by my grandparents, who deeply believed in the healing power of herbs. Growing up, I was surrounded by their lush garden filled with fruits, vegetables, and tea plants, which sparked my early love for teas. As I explored this passion, I became a certified herbalist and mastered the art of blending teas to create perfectly balanced flavors.
​
My mission with Herbal Immense Teas is to promote holistic wellness and heal the islands by combining traditional herbal knowledge with a youthful, modern touch. Some of our teas are grown and sourced locally throughout the British Virgin Islands and other Caribbean islands, celebrating the unique flavors and traditions of the region. Most of our blends, however, are crafted with organic teas sourced from sustainable farms in China and Asia—the heart of the tea world.
​
Committed to sustainability, I use eco-friendly, recyclable packaging and offer $5 off for reusing our boxes or tea tubes. With roots in the Caribbean, my vision is to expand Herbal Immense across multiple islands and eventually bring our teas to a global audience. Each cup reflects my dedication to quality, wellness, and the vibrant traditions of our culture.
