Taka Ino

Taka Ino is a first generation tea grower/ tea maker, learning the way of nature through observation and cultivation of tea in Hawaii. Influenced by Masanobu Fukuoka’s no-till, no-herbicide, “natural farming”, he enjoys breaking customs to produce the best tea possible, good for people and the land.
Now 15 years since inception, he applies his values and skill toward tea making and product development at Mauna Kea Tea.
