About Hot-Tea
-
Beginnings
It all started with a simple chat about our shared love for hot-tubs. And tea. From there, the vision of a hot-tub spa emerged. Why not serve tea to guests as they luxuriate in healing vibes with the soothing scents of eucalyptus and jasmine tea wafting through the air? Now, our dream is becoming a reality. We're deeply passionate about creating a haven for rest and rejuvenation, not only for us but for the communities we aim to serve. And so, Hot-Tea took root, and as we watered it - we saw the potential.

Vision
Our vision revolves around empowering people to prioritize self-care, self-love, and holistic well-being. We're achieving this through a multifaceted approach, combining a vibrant café, a wide array of expert-led classes, and a rejuvenating oasis featuring mineral and vitamin-infused spas, infrared saunas, aromatherapy treatments, and much more. We hope to provide balance and restoration to many people, starting with our flagship location in Connecticut, USA.
