Quality Matters.While many tea shops acquire their teas via third party vendors, we prefer to acquire them directly from the source. Each year, we schedule our buying trip to coincide with the Spring tea harvest, generally around April or May. Our trips bring us to Thailand, Japan, Taiwan and China while our business partner is taking Sri Lanka and India as he has more experience in this region. We want to ensure we obtain high quality products to share with our communities.

Organic Teas
We began our tea journey in 2012 by being a USDA certified organic company. In 2020, we decided to no longer continue our USDA Certified Organic Certification process because of various reasons. However, our sourcing has not changed, and our high-quality tea still matters to us. Although we can no longer use the phrase " certified organic," but we are still an organic tea company. We will continue to provide quality products and services to our customers.
