  1. Tips on Leaf tea shopping in Australia

  2. To shop for leaf tea in Australia is no longer difficult. Thanks to the vibrant mingling of different cultures, we can find places for Yum Cha as easily as a place for a slice of Baklava or a plate of sushi!

  3. To find a good tea shop that sells leaf tea in Australia, here are 3 tips: Let’s them check out in the following slides..

  4. What do you want Yes, it seems obvious, but different tea shops specialise in different teas. The owner of the tea shop might like green tea, or has a special connection with a Japanese tea farm or supplier, so his / her tea shop has larger range of green tea. The owner / staff is more able to help you in selecting green tea in this case.

  5. If you go to this tea shop to buy black tea, you might have fewer tea to choose from, as well as less information can be provided to you to help your tea purchasing decision.

  6. Brand vs Price While the big brand tea is dominating the supermarket tea shelves, the good leaf tea has to be found in specialist stores. Big brand is known for consistency in their products. The disadvantage is the tea lacks character. It is like the hamburger from McDonalds – yes it is edible, but it is not the one you write home about.

  7. Specialist tea shops are now located in many parts of Australia. To make things easier, there are also many online tea shops dedicated to providing good tea and great service. Don’t be alarmed to buy tea online. Ask some questions about your tea before buying – such as freshness, depth of knowledge of the tea you plan to buy & shipping.

  8. Freshness So often when it comes to specialty tea, there is slight seasonal variations. Keeping this in mind, be sure to ask the tea shop assistant how often teas are shipped over.

  9. Many tea suppliers, in order to reduce cost, buy a lot of tea from major European sorting house. So a Chinese tea might leave China, goes over to Germany (where many tea distribution / sorting centres are located) then graded, mixed and then sent back down under to your Australian tea supplier before reaching your hand.

  10. This not only causes carbon footprint but also compromise tea freshness. Ask for Chinese tea from China, Japanese tea from Japan. Not a tea which has done its worldwide trip.
