TPA // Ellison Wofford - Susurrus Sparkling Teas
Originally from South Carolina, Ellison moved to Napa in 2013 for a career in the wine industry. First, as a commercial lender, then General Manager of RAEN Winery, and most recently as Director of Business Development, Trade Sales of Bella Oaks.
Always a student of yoga, she earned her 500-hour Yoga Teacher Certification in 2020, seeking a lifestyle of wellness that could integrate seamlessly with her career in wine.
Realizing the innate synergies between tea and wellness, coupled with the incredible analogies you can draw between the vast worlds of wine and tea, she founded Susurrus Sparkling Teas.
Ellison hopes to draw wine and tea enthusiasts - or novices - alike into the boundless world of tea, providing everyone with opportunities to enjoy beautiful beverages that support all lifestyles - from moderation and sobriety, to elegant pairings with fine wines and cocktails.
A compelling companion to wine, tea is truly wine’s “sober sister.”
