West China Tea has opened its first brick-and-mortar teahouse in East Austin.
The details
The Austin-based company was founded in 2012 as a specialty importer of farm-direct Chinese tea.
Originally operating as an online and pop-up vendor, over the past decade the business has expanded to open its first physical teahouse location in May and now also offers classes, events and training.
“Our vision is to build a community worldwide through tea culture. From the farmers who grow it to the people who serve it and those who enjoy it—tea brings people together,” the company’s website states.
The teahouse inventory includes more than 200 types of tea sourced from over 40 suppliers across China. The company catalog also boasts an assortment of teaware.
