founder | ritual curator | tea sommelier

Named after her grandmother, Modestine® is rooted in Caribbean bush tea, rituals, and the sensory rhythms that shaped Laura’s upbringing in Grenada.

What began as personal ritual became Modestine®. A world shaped through tea, gathering, and everyday softness.

"Luxury is found in the moments we slow down enough to feel."

If you've been craving elevated experiences and deeper connection, this space is for you.

Those early moments of ceremony with her grandmother, Modestine, shaped Laura's relationship to tea, not as a product, but as a lived practice grounded in rhythm, repetition and presence.
