HI Y’ALL!

MY NAME IS AMBER JACKSON, OWNER OF THE BLACK LEAF TEA & CULTURE SHOP.

I'm a Chicago native with a passion for tea, people and Black culture. April 11, 2019, I launched The Black Leaf Tea & Culture Shop to share my love for tea, engage with the community and celebrate Black Culture.

Using my background in food science, I design all the tea blends myself. They are just as unique as the people who drink them. Whether you’re looking for a little spice in your life or something to calm you after a long week of work, I’ve got you covered. My tea blends are here to spread joy and inspire all who sip to be as creative and bold as the blends they drink. The Black Leaf Tea Cafe opened in October 2023 in Providence, RI where customers can enjoy tea lattes and mocktails, explore our culture corner filled with books by Black authors, and purchase pouches of tea and tea accessories. The cafe also serves as a space to host community events like tea blending workshops and artist pop-ups. Black Leaf has truly become a reflection of who I am and what I’m passionate about. I’m so happy I get to share it with all of you!  Cheers!!!
