About Us

Hi, my name is Chris, the founder of Wu Cha. Like you, I am passionate about tea – so much so that I moved to Taiwan to seek more knowledge about the teas that I love and to live closer to their source. Although this is in part a personal journey, the concept behind Wu Cha is to share the discoveries of this journey with you. I personally source each and every tea that is offered in the store. Each tea is a representation of my current understanding of what good tea should be. I don’t offer teas on the basis of what I think the market might like. I am here to offer you what I am personally drinking and what I think has real value as tea. Most of the teas you will find here are oolong varieties made in the high mountains of Taiwan and raw puerh. My hope is that in drinking these teas, not only will you enjoy them on a personal level, it will also allow you to gain some new understanding into the world of tea that will help you navigate your own experiences.
