The Passion Behind My Tea Store

Great Tea Road Co. is the product of my successful journey that is full of experiences. This is the result of my passionate drive to reach out to millions of people and care for their health through the tender and divine taste of teas.

What Inspired the Name Great Tea Road Co.?

The name of my store was inspired by the historic Siberian route from where great quantities of tea are being transported from China to Europe. This route is also known as the Tea Road that surfaces on the Moscow Highway. By choosing this name, I feel like I am sharing with my fellow tea lovers an uplifting journey of my passion and taste.

How Did My Love for Tea Start?

My profound and natural mania to share my love for tea with people helped me be still and attain utmost serenity. And no, this is not just an occasional enthusiasm. As someone who was born in Thailand to a Chinese immigrant family, I have learned to associate tea with every meal, and I have followed that tradition. Now, it is my ritual to start my day with a cup of tea.

Discovering Teas From Various Places

My ability to speak different languages helped me a lot in traveling to many tea-producing countries, which do not even exclude the rural mountainous regions that nest small tea farms to discover high-quality teas from my communities. It also allowed me to exchange interest and gain more information by speaking to the native tea connoisseurs about teas’ reputation and benefits.

The Idea of 
Starting a Tea Store

After I moved to the US, I was always thinking of an organic tea store. This gave me insight to set up my own house to deliver the tasteful delights directly fetched from the lands of tea like Thailand, Japan, Taiwan, and China to local people. My business partner, on the other hand, works around Sri Lanka and India as he has more experience in these regions to collect the best organic products.

My Tea Products

The teas I offer in my store are natural. I have personally worked with many tea garden owners in various parts of China, Thailand, Taiwan, Japan, and India. I have also sourced products directly from farms and delivered them to the US. To provide my customers with products that are more flavorful, aromatic, pleasurable, and divine, I blend all the teas I offer myself.
My entire product selection is handpicked. Sourced from the finest tea gardens, all the products I deliver are delicious to provide my customers with the best tea experience. My tea varieties range in all forms to offer every health benefit that is possible.
I value serving my customers by prioritizing the environment-friendly packaging of our products to keep the natural flavors of my products intact. Through this, I hope to bring organic teas everywhere and spread the culture and art of discovering a taste that lasts forever.

My Journey to Becoming a Tea Professional

The mighty has led me to survive for this passion to discover nature’s loveliest tea gardens. My insights of an organic tea store helped me to begin my Japanese tea ceremony training with a tea master of Urasenke Tankokai Association. Through this, I became a certified tea professional. Today, I am a “Chado “(Japanese tea ceremony) practitioner and had also served as the VP of Yukimakai Urasenke of Minnesota.

Let Us Enjoy the Tea Journey

We are on a journey on the Great Tea Road together. I am excited to share the best teas I have discovered with you. I believe that tea should calm your mind, soothe your body, and lift your spirit. I strive to provide organic teas and even locally blend them to bring healing sensations to you. I hope you can share my passion and enjoy the fruits of my labor.
