Inspired by Our Roots

A quest to bring milk tea to a convenient grab’n’go can led us to the beautiful countryside of Taiwan where our co-founder Olivia Chen's family is from and where our tea and ube (for our Ube Milk Tea flavor) is farmed and harvested by multi-generational farmers.Fun Fact: Our organic mulberry tea in our Ube Milk Tea is from a farm that is run by a third generation father and son team that uses the best part of mulberry leaves, the top 10% (only baby tea leaves), to brew our Ube drinks! The remaining 90% of the leaves are fed to silk worms to create beautiful silk products made by Taiwanese artisans. How cool is that?!Our Ube is sourced from multi-generational farm in Chia Yi 嘉義縣 and our Mulberry Tea Leaf is from a third generational father-son farm in Miaoli 苗栗縣. We are so excited about our latest flavor launch as we are supporting local Taiwanese farmers and bringing more jobs to Taiwan with this launch!
