TIA Wellness Resort in Da Nang, Vietnam, has expanded its lifestyle boutique into a space that is 25% larger. The available goods that shoppers can now access through this retail environment include TIA-designed items such as jewelry, notebooks, tote bags, pillowcases, beach and yoga mat bags, affirmation cards, tableware, decorative gongs, and curtain tassels inspired by mala beads. Black and white designs come in patterns "that match the property's ethos."
The TIA Wellness Resort boutique also debuts the TIA Signature Tea Collection, featuring five blends named Breathe, Flow, Nourish, Create, and Wellness. Each of these offerings is formulated with specific herbs and botanicals — from chamomile and lavender for Breathe to butterfly pea flower and mint for Create — and is served on a rotating basis at the resort's Wellness Center to support gentle detoxification and internal nourishment.
