Numi Tea

Numi Tea (Numi Organic Tea) is an Oakland, California social enterprise founded in 1999 by siblings Ahmed Rahim and Reem Hassani, selling premium organic and Fair Trade certified teas and herbal teasans built from real fruits, flowers, herbs and spices. It is a consumer packaged-goods company with no developer program, no API keys and no developer portal -- but its Shopify storefront at numitea.com serves a genuine, live agent-commerce surface: a Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) MCP server at /api/ucp/mcp exposing 13 catalog, cart, checkout and order tools with full JSON Schema, a UCP discovery document pinned to protocol version 2026-04-08, RFC 8414/9728 OAuth metadata, OpenID Connect discovery on its own account host, and a substantive hand-written llms.txt and agents.md instructing AI shopping agents. Payment completion is explicitly fenced behind contemporaneous human approval.

Numi Tea publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Tea, Beverages, Consumer Packaged Goods, Retail, and E-Commerce.

Numi Tea’s developer surface includes documentation, authentication, support, engineering blog, signup flow, and 18 more developer resources.

    URI. Provisioned by Shopify for the merchant storefront and served from Numi Tea's own domain.
