HENCE TEA
Art, Technology, Humanity as One.
In 2018, Hence Tea founder, Jack Jiao, started a Southern California-based meetup group for tea enthusiasts. At the request of its members, he sourced both traditional and unique Chinese teas from independent tea farmers in China for the group’s tasting pleasure.
Surprised at realizing that some tea lovers were unaware of the many distinctive flavors and numerous benefits provided by Chinese teas, Jack sought to introduce Chinese teas and tea culture to the group, and then, to the world.
From this vision, Hence Tea was born.
We visit China every year to source fresh and authentic loose-leaf Chinese teas, as well as high-quality and classic teawares and tea accessories.
Our online store now offers more than 45 different teas, teawares, and tea accessories. Every product available from our store has been personally sourced, tasted, and tested by the Hence Tea team.
Our Tea Trip Programs are designed to offer you an extraordinary adventure into the heart of tea culture.
This is not just a tour; it’s a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in centuries-old tea traditions, explore breathtaking landscapes, and connect deeply with local communities.
Throughout our journey, you’ll learn from master tea artisans, witness the meticulous craftsmanship behind each tea leaf, and savor teas that are renowned for their unique flavors and rich histories. Beyond tea, you’ll delve into the vibrant cultures of the regions you visit, forging friendships and creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Here at Hence Tea, above all else, we are committed to offering the highest quality teas with generations of tea cultivation expertise.
If we do not appear to stock the teas you are looking for, please ask, and we will keep your wishes in mind as we continue to expand our selection.

We believe
Art, Technology, Humanity as One.
At Hence Tea, our mission is rooted in the belief that tea is more than just a beverage — it's a blend of art, technology, and humanity coming together to enrich our lives.
We are committed to these three essential elements: art, technology, and humanity. Together, they form the foundation of everything we do. Our mission is to bring you a tea experience that not only delights the senses but also supports a more sustainable and connected world.
Art
We see the beauty in every aspect of tea. The distinct shapes of authentic loose-leaf tea are an expression of nature’s artistry. The traditional Gongfu brewing process is a ritual, a performance of precision and grace. Our porcelain teawares, Yixing Zisha pots, and other teawares, crafted from diverse materials, are not just functional items but pieces of art. At Hence Tea, we believe that a life with tea is a life with art, where every moment spent with tea is a moment of beauty and mindfulness.
Technology
The future of the tea industry must embrace innovation. Technology helps us improve every step of the tea journey, from advanced tea plantation techniques to the precise processing of tea leaves in modern factories. Innovations like tea garden monitoring ensure sustainable cultivation, while AI and digital platforms make authentic tea education and tea culture more accessible to people around the world. Technology allows us to connect globally, making it easier for everyone to access authentic teas and knowledge.
Humanity
At its core, tea is meant for people—to be shared, enjoyed, and savored. Tea connects us to each other and to nature. As a company, we recognize the responsibility to protect the environment for future generations. Sustainable practices in the tea industry are vital, as they protect the earth, soil, and climate that make tea possible. Through tea brewing, tasting, and sharing, we foster human connection, bringing people back to nature and encouraging a balance between the natural world and human existence.

Lo Tung (Chinese Poet, 790-835 AD)
When I drink tea, I am conscious of peace. The cool breath of heaven rises in my sleeves and blows my cares away.
