About Us

Our love of tea started at a young age - we both grew up with it - in different contexts - but it was very much a part of our every day lives. We never dreamed it would become such a big part of our lives.

Our adventure started in 2000 after living in Germany - we fell in love with specialty tea shops in Europe and kep scratching our heads at why you couldn't find a good cup of tea in Toronto. In a land that had embraced specialty coffee and placed value on quality - how was it possible that finding good tea meant playing detective and hunting it down? So...we decided to take the matter into our own hands - and grow a business. A business whose purpose was to introduce people to the wonders of tea - teach about the fascinating nuances of tea - and first and foremost - provide a quality product with quality service.

Our journey continues to be a delight - we hope you pull up a chair - pour yourself a cup of tea - and join us on our adventure...
