THE WAYCHÁ STORY
ABOUT WAYCHÁ
At WayChá, our passion for tea began on my many journeys across Asia. With each trip, I became captivated by not just the incredible flavours of authentic Asian tea, but also the rich culture, ceremonies, and traditions surrounding how tea is prepared, served, and enjoyed — something that felt missing back home in the UK.
After attending numerous tea ceremonies and speaking with local tea farmers and artisans, I was inspired to share this unique experience with others. I made it my mission to source the finest quality loose leaf teas, ensuring people in the UK can discover what real, expertly crafted tea truly tastes like.
CURRENT FOCUS
Right now, I’m focused primarily on Taiwanese teas, renowned worldwide for their exceptional quality. Taiwan’s unique climate, high mountain regions, and refined tea-making traditions — adapted from centuries of Chinese expertise — produce teas with complex, aromatic flavours you simply can’t find elsewhere.
From the famous Dong Ding Oolong to high mountain teas like Alishan, each tea I source is carefully selected for its authenticity, taste, and craftsmanship.
WHAT’S NEXT?
I’m always exploring new teas and accessories on my travels, with the aim of expanding WayChá collection further. Whether you’re new to loose leaf tea or a seasoned tea drinker, I hope you enjoy the journey of flavour as much as I do.
If you’re looking for a particular Taiwanese tea not yet listed on the site, or have any questions about brewing or tea culture, feel free to get in touch — I’d love to help.
