Meet Guru Hari

Guru Hari Khalsa is the tea master for Yogi and oversees product research and development for the company's US and European operations.  His passion for delicious food and flavors started at a young age after watching Julia Childs on PBS right after Sesame Street.  At the age of 14 he was flipping crepes and making soups in a French cooking school.  This lead to a curiosity in herbs and spices and their flavors and effects.  At 20 he met various yogis and healers from India and began to practice yoga and meditation, which naturally lead to the study of the ancient healing systems of Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Tibetan Medicine, all of which use food and herbs to nurture and support the body.

Guru Hari and been creating (and sipping) Yogi teas for over 30 years. He continues to be inspired by a passion for good food and good health and an incredible creative ability to combine herbs and spices into deliciously purposeful teas to support health and wellbeing.
