AWARD WINNING BRAND FOR AUTHENTIC CHINESE TEA

We established MingCha in 1999 with the aim to let novices and connoisseurs understand handcrafted tea of authentic origins
in China with an open heart. The Chinese character
「明」 Ming composed of 「日」 Sun and 「月」 Moon has multiple meanings:
Ming means to understand; Ming Dynasty (since 14th Century) was the period when tea became popular in every household;
Ming means also to enlighten. We believe good tea could bring one closer to Mother Nature and the Universe.
​You also get to know yourself better through tea.

What's In Our Name?
