Our Tea

We believe that the best bubble tea starts with great tea. That is why we use the finest whole leaf teas, freshly brewed in-store, ensuring every cup delivers the quality and depth of flavour that define how tea is meant to be.

Cultivating and Harvesting

Our tea is grown in high altitude gardens, in soil rich with minerals, and weather conditions with the right amount of sunlight, rainfall and wind to produce tea leaves with deep flavours.

Slow-grown for quality

Our tea gardens, located at altitudes above 1,000 metres, provide the ideal conditions for slow leaf growth. This extended process enhances the concentration of flavours and aroma, resulting in a richer, more distinctive tea.

Timing and Precision

Our harvesting process prioritises timing and craftsmanship to ensure only the finest leaves are selected for the perfect cup. Green tea is picked in early spring, followed by oolong in late spring, and black tea during summer’s peak season.

From Leaf to Flavour

Tea leaves are carefully withered to reduce moisture and enhance aromas. Green tea is rolled and pan-fired, oolong is partially oxidised and roasted, and black tea is fully oxidised. Jasmine tea is delicately flower-infused, while Earl Grey is flavoured with essential oils.

Crafting the Perfect Cup

After harvest, the leaves are carefully processed, fermented, or pan-fired to preserve their rich flavours. Each step is taken with precision to ensure that every cup of Gong cha tea is fresh, bold, and brewed to perfection.

Brewing

Our brewing process is thoroughly regulated to ensure the best in every cup of Gong cha tea—from the purity of the water to the ideal temperature and timing.
