When two female led west of Ireland businesses come together great things happen – like Ella & Jo Cosmetics hand blended tea, Sereni-Tea.

The team at @ellaandjocosmetics have commissioned master infusionists The Duffy Tea And Beverage Company @duffyteaandbeveragecompany Galway to create Sereni-tea. The founders of both companies have participated in the EMPOWER programmes for female entrepreneurs at GMIT.

“Tea is one of my all time favourite things,” said Charlene Flanagan of Ella & Jo Cosmetics. “A cup of tea in Irish culture can literally solve a multitude, and I knew from the minute I pitched the idea to Aishling to create a relaxing enjoyable tea that will transport you to a place of serenity, hence the name.

“We came up with a therapeutic tea blend nestled in tea pillows that is designed to be your closure, or to take a moment of calm in your busy day. With delicate flavours of caffeine-free high grade Rooibos and sensual aromas of lavender and jasmine, and a hint of vanilla it is a multisensory experience that will bring you a moment of calm from the moment you open the pack.”

Sereni-Tea is available online at ellaandjo.ie
