Merchant’s Chest – Pre-Order 2026

This is a pre order offering to support this year’s travels to China and surrounding regions to source tea directly.

It’s also a way to share what we find along the way. Teas that are seasonal, harder to access, and not often available outside of where they’re grown.

There are three options within the Merchant’s Chest:

A Hand Full
A small, thoughtful selection.
A few special teas alongside an everyday tea to return to.
Simple, enjoyable, and grounding.

Hidden in the Rocks
A deeper selection of more unique teas.
Harder to find, more expressive, and a little less common.
Teas with character, from places that take a bit more reaching.

The Chest
The full range.
Everything across the offering, plus a few special finds set aside.
This is the complete Merchant’s Chest.

Each selection will be gathered during the trip or sourced prior in the first season flush. all tea will be sent after return in late July.
Please be patient, we will post out in August.

Thank you for supporting the journey, the sourcing, and the chance to bring these teas back to share.
