24 June 2025 At Tea House, we are passionate about offering the finest loose leaf tea to our customers. But what truly sets our tea apart is not just the taste — it’s the carefully sourced ingredients that create a rich, flavorful experience with every cup. Our commitment to quality begins with understanding the origins of each tea and the meticulous process behind its cultivation.
Where Our Tea Comes From: The Journey to Perfection
Tea is not just a beverage; it’s a story. Each tea leaf we source is grown in some of the world’s most renowned tea-growing regions, where tradition and expert cultivation meet modern techniques. From the misty mountains of China and India to the lush fields of Taiwan and Sri Lanka, we work closely with trusted growers who share our dedication to quality.
Here’s a look at some of the most celebrated tea regions we source from:
1. China: The Heart of Traditional Tea
Known for its long history of tea cultivation, China is home to some of the most prized tea varieties, including Longjing (Dragon Well), Jasmine Tea, and White Tea. The country’s diverse climate and terroir contribute to the unique flavors and aromas that have made Chinese teas renowned worldwide.
2. India: A Legacy of Rich Flavors
India is synonymous with Assam, Darjeeling, and Nilgiri teas. Assam is known for its bold, malty flavors, while Darjeeling offers delicate, floral notes that are perfect for a more refined taste. Nilgiri teas, from the southern region of India, have a smooth, bright flavor ideal for any occasion.
3. Taiwan: The Art of Oolong
Taiwan is famous for producing some of the best Oolong teas in the world, with varieties such as Tie Guan Yin and High Mountain Oolong offering exquisite depth of flavor. The island’s unique climate and high-altitude farms contribute to the complex taste profiles that are highly sought after by tea enthusiasts.
4. Sri Lanka: The Island of Ceylon Tea
Ceylon Tea from Sri Lanka is known for its bright, crisp flavors, often with a citrusy undertone. The island’s high-altitude plantations provide the perfect growing conditions for producing teas that are full-bodied and perfect for brewing a strong, invigorating cup.
Sustainability and Ethical Sourcing
We believe in supporting sustainable tea farming practices that protect the environment and the livelihoods of the farmers. That’s why we partner with growers who are committed to ethical sourcing, using eco-friendly farming methods, and providing fair wages to workers. By choosing our premium loose leaf teas, you’re not only indulging in top-quality flavors but also contributing to a sustainable future for the tea industry.
Our Commitment to Quality
We take great care in selecting our tea suppliers. Every batch of loose leaf tea goes through stringent quality control to ensure that only the finest leaves reach our customers. From the moment the leaves are plucked to the final cup, we prioritize freshness, flavor, and purity, so you can enjoy an exceptional tea experience every time.
Why Loose Leaf Tea?
Unlike bagged teas, which often contain lower-quality dust or fannings, loose leaf tea allows the leaves to unfurl during steeping, releasing the full spectrum of flavors and aromas. This is why we choose to offer only loose leaf tea — because it delivers a more authentic and intense tea experience, with a more complex flavor profile.
