TEA LEAVES
We source our tea leaves from all over the world, from Gyokuro green tea from Japan to Da Hong Pao from China. All of our teas are only brewed using premium grade full-leaf tea. We even blend some of teas in house, such as our Chai.
We name our tea leaves in a way that is comprehensive to most people, based on their taste profiles.
