We have named our hero Asheni.

Asheni is curious, determined, smart but above all hardworking. She listens and learns from her elders. She builds on the knowledge her family has worked so hard to acquire and hopes to follow in her fathers footsteps.

We see her life story thus far in the blink of an eye. We capture it at 3 pivotal stages of her life.

8 Years Old - In the first 4 shots of the story we establish Asheni as a delightful child that is curious and loves to listen and learn.

14 Years Old - We transition from curiosity to determination as she takes her place at the drying racks studying and observing. She takes this passion to action by diving into books and data to grow the best leaves possible.

25 Years Old - She is proud and hopeful, now owning her own farm and continuing the family legacy of quality tea.
