Vetiver is a non-invasive deeply-rooted clump grass uniquely suited to solve environmental problems. Cultivated for centuries for its aromatic and Ayurvedic medicinal properties, Vetiver is one of the two most important base notes in perfumery. Like patchouli, Vetiver firmly anchors otherwise ephemeral florals and elusive citruses in the fragrance pyramid. Vetiver roots adopt the characteristics of their host soils, which explains the differences among Vetiver oils. Hawaiian Sunshine Vetiver is potent, complex, sweet and earthy, which lends itself to culinary applications. Hawaiian Sunshine Vetiver is the brand of Vetiver Systems Hawaii, LLC, which certifies that its Vetiver is non-invasive, non-competitive, and non-fertile.

HI Tea-Shop is the whimsical child of Vetiver Systems Hawaii, LLC, which grows Hawaii Sunshine Vetiver to stabilize slopes and stop erosion. Mary Wilkowski is the visionary owner of both businesses. In 1997 she became a passionate advocate of the plant after falling in love with its fragrance and employing it extensively in her line of luxe Pele's Bath soaps. She's since earned the local moniker "the Vetiver lady." Always a fragrance aficionado, Mary started blending Vetiver with teas and aromatics in 2011. Within a year she had developed and began marketing the HI Tea-Shop line.
