Our Tea Sourcing
From our mountains to your teacup—every tea begins with trusted hands and deep roots.
At Of Tea, sourcing is deeply personal. We don’t just select teas—we grow them. We proudly own and operate three family-run farms in Fujian province, each one lovingly managed by relatives who carry on generations of craftsmanship.
武夷山｜福建 Sun‘s Family Farm
Wuyi Mountain, Fujian
Nestled among ancient cliffs, the Sun family grow bold, mineral-rich teas using centuries-old techniques. Home of the legendary rock oolongs like the Big Red Rope grown in mineral-rich cliffs, and where our robust, naturally oxidized Wild-Tree Black Tea are cultivated.
福鼎｜ 福建 Lin's Family Farm
Fuding, Fujian
Overseen by our paternal uncle’s family, the Lin‘s farm produces our Silver Needle white tea, hand-harvested during early spring. Prized for its softness, purity, and quiet strength, it’s one of the most delicate expressions of Chinese tea.
安溪｜福建 Chen's Tea House
Anxi, Fujian
Managed by our maternal aunt’s family, the Chen family runs a respected tea house in Anxi, the birthplace of Iron Goddess (Tie Guan Yin) oolong. Their mastery in producing floral, well-balanced oolong comes from decades of care and precision.
Beyond our own farms, we proudly partner with small, family-owned tea farms in some of China’s most storied regions.
These partnerships reflect our commitment to supporting small businesses — each of us rooted in tradition, and united through Of Tea to share something greater than any of us could alone.
Quanzhou, Fujian
泉州｜福建
A trusted family-run farm where our Peach Oolong and Lychee Black Tea are crafted. These teas are naturally scented with real fruit and flowers, never artificially flavored.
Hangzhou, Zhejiang
杭州｜浙江
The home of Dragonwell (Longjing) green tea. Grown on misty hills and pan-fired by hand, it offers a fresh, nutty character unique to this origin.
Mengding, Sichuan
蒙顶｜四川
A historic tea-growing region nestled in the mountains. This is where our Orchid Yellow tea is cultivated - an elegant, lightly oxidized tea with soft florals and silky depth.
