Where longevity wellness meets Japanese tea craft

Where longevity wellness meets Japanese tea craft

Daniel Block is a health and wellness professional with over 20 years of specialized experience in longevity and fitness. That professional background led him directly to hojicha — a traditionally roasted Japanese tea whose exceptionally low caffeine content, rich antioxidant profile, and deep roots in Japanese tea culture align with everything he has spent two decades studying and recommending. Daniel founded Eiju Tea Distribution with one clear mission: to identify exceptional Japanese hojicha and introduce the tea to the Southern California café and wellness market through a committed, long-term partnership. To find a partner sourcing and nurturing the highest quality tea plants, understands the unique roasting process, and who ultimately creates the finest hojicha powder available.
