Every sip is a story that deserves to be told

Maisha Hadithi is rooted in African Storytelling, with a glass tumblers of fresh juice, ice cold water, or a travel mugs or flasks of hot tea, coffee or chocolate all wrapped up in our African culture, and nostalgia. African, stories are not just told—they are lived. They flow from the crackling firesides of our grandmothers’ homes, drift through the scent of spiced chai in bustling marketplaces, and linger in the warmth of a shared sip between old friends. At Maisha Hadithi, we believe that every cup holds a tale, every sip a memory, and every moment a chance to connect with our roots.

In many African homes, tea is more than just a drink— it is a sip of home, the first offering of hospitality, the bridge between generations, and the backdrop to laughter, wisdom, and reflection. Whether it’s the delicate aroma of Swahili spiced tea, the bold strength of Ethiopian coffee, or the comforting embrace of hot chocolate, every brew carries a piece of our heritage. Our beautifully crafted glass and steel tumblers are designed to hold these precious moments, ensuring that wherever you are, home is never far away.

Our tumblers are more than just drinkware; they are vessels of identity. Inspired by the intricate patterns of African, the wisdom of age-old proverbs, and the resilience of our people, each tumbler tells a story. Through engraving and sticker wraps, we bring these narratives to life—whether it’s an Adinkra symbol for strength, a Swahili saying about perseverance, or an illustration reminiscent of a cherished memory. Every piece is a tribute to the beauty of African storytelling.

At Maisha Hadithi, we invite you to slow down and romanticize the simple joys of life. To take a break from the rush and savor the warmth of your morning brew, just like the elders did as they shared their wisdom. To hold a tumbler wrapped in artistry, feeling the weight of history, or the vibrancy of color and the promise of the future in your hands. To sip, dream, and tell your story.

We are a collective of dreamers, culture lovers, and storytellers who cherish the nostalgia of handwritten letters, the power of African cinema, and the comfort of shared traditions. Through your Hekaya or Nymbani tumbler or Safari Flask, we celebrate the past, embrace the present, and inspire the future.

Welcome to Maisha Hadithi — where every sip has a story, and every story deserves to be told.

I absolutely love my tumbler!
