The Journey
My journey with tea began while traveling across Asia, where I discovered the incredible depth of tea culture. From Taiwan’s mountain oolongs to China’s traditional brews, each cup revealed a story of heritage and craftsmanship. Inspired by these experiences and by the simplicity and calming colour schemes of Japanese design, I created WayChá to share authentic teas and thoughtful accessories here in the UK.

REVIEWS
DO YOU KNOW ALL TEA COMES FROM THE SAME PLANT?
Yes, all true tea comes from a single plant: Camellia sinensis. Whether it’s green, black, oolong, or white tea, the differences come down to how the leaves are processed after harvesting. Oxidation levels, drying techniques, and even the region where the tea is grown all shape the final flavour, colour, and aroma. At WayChá, we source high-quality leaves that are carefully processed to deliver exceptional taste in every cup.
