IN A CITY THAT DEMANDS PRODUCTIVITY, IT’S A POWERFUL ACT TO SIT, TAKE TIME, AND DRINK TEA.
OPENING FALL / CHELSEA NYC
YOU HAVE TIME.
We are a tea / ceremony space.
Here, we use tea as a meditation, creating stillness and awareness through the five senses.
Whether you’re discovering tea for the first time or returning to something familiar, tea slows us down from the noise of everyday life.
Join us for an open tea meditation or a guided ceremony.
COMING TO CHELSEA THIS FALL
WHY TEA? WHY NOW?
Tea ceremonies in Japan emerged in times of war and instability, when stillness was a necessity—not a luxury.We carry that spirit forward.
Inspired by tradition, but bound to no single lineage, we use tea to return to the present: to reclaim our attention, focus, and energy.
OUR TEA
All of our teas are single-origin, sourced from small farms in Taiwan, China, Japan, Bhutan, India, and beyond by our friend, neighbor, and partner—tea expert Sebastian Beckwith, who visits his farmers yearly. Whether you know exactly what you’re looking for or have no idea where to begin, we’ll help you find the right tea for the moment.
