About the project

My journey with tea

My name is Alexander. My journey with tea began in 2005. Over time, my main interest has come to focus on farmer-produced teas, especially those from old and ancient trees growing in small high-mountain gardens.

In tea, I look for balance. Flavour, aroma, aftertaste and how I feel after a tea session are equally important to me. I pay attention to how they come together and the overall impression they leave.

How I choose tea

Before offering a tea, I taste dozens of samples. This process helps me find the teas I want to share.

I have worked with some of the farmers who supply my tea for many years. Teas made from scarce raw material sometimes need to be ordered long before the harvest: arrangements are made in advance for tea that will only become available in early spring the following year.

Every tea in this collection is a personal choice. Here I bring together what interests me and what I am happy to offer you.
