Tea is more than just a beverage. It's a way of life. And across Asia, the birthplace of the first tea, it is a significant part of life.

Tea drinking dates back centuries. It is believed that tea was first introduced to China in the 3rd century AD by Buddhist monks. Tea quickly became popular throughout the area that is today the country of China, and eventually spread to other parts of Asia in many forms.

Today, tea remains an essential part of daily life in many Asian countries. In China, for example, tea is consumed at all times of the day, including during business meetings and social gatherings. Tea is also a key ingredient in many traditional Chinese medicinal remedies. While in Japan, tea ceremonies are held to mark special occasions such as weddings and business deals.

We also have a growing range of teas from Vietnam, from pristine fields owned by a small family business, organically grown.
