Life in Teacup

Thank You to our global friends!

Please let us know if you would like to have your national flag added!

2013 Taiwan competition teas are arriving in a few weeks. Most of them have been released by their competition categories, and the rest will depend on the packing schedule of the competitions. Varieties, grades and prices are similar to those of last year, dominated by Dong Ding traditional style and Lu Ming organic oolong. Please stay tuned for early purchase discount (will post soon)!

Please send your inquiries if interested in obtaining whole sealed cans of competition teas.

"What makes the rose so precious is the time you have spent on it..."

- Le Petit Prince

We believe...

We believe tea is a luxury of time, and not necessarily a luxury of money.

We believe in small business operations in tea manufacturing and trading.

We believe modern communication technology empowers tea drinkers with more easily accessible information, hence make tea purchase less complicated and less expensive.
