Visit Us
Our tasting room and retail space is located in Mount Pleasant in Vancouver. In this intimate space we share our small collection of rare teas and ceramics that we have sourced from small growers, artisans and foragers working in remote tea regions across China.
We designed this room as a serene space where people could come to enjoy tea, and where we could share stories about the history, craftsmanship, regions, and experience of tea. We also value it as a place where we can observe and carry forward ancient traditions around the act of preparing, pouring, and tasting teas. Our tasting room has a custom built traditional tea bar, at which we serve all of our teas.

COVID protocols

Our teas are best experienced in-store or in the comfort of your own home. However, we are able to offer tea to-go when requested. Prices vary depending on the tea. We brew each tea individually in traditional gongfucha style at our tea bar, therefore there could be a wait time of up to 10-15 minutes depending on how busy we are at the moment. We appreciate your patience.
