🌿 The World’s Love Affair with Chinese Tea
The world first fell in love with Chinese tea in the 17th century, when ships carried precious leaves from Fujian and Guangdong to Europe. In royal courts and salons, tea became a symbol of elegance and the mysterious East.
By the 19th century, Chinese tea had traveled the globe—its names like “Bohea” and “Hyson” appearing on menus from London to New York. Even as other countries began growing tea, China remained the soul of the world’s tea culture.
Today, as people rediscover slow living and authentic taste, the charm of Chinese and Taiwanese tea shines again—reminding us that a single cup can connect centuries of tradition with the modern world.
The Paradox of Buying Tea for Foreign Friends
Have you ever wondered how to brew Taiwanese tea properly?
Which tea to choose, how much to use, or how long to steep it?
Or maybe you’ve stood at an airport shop, wanting to buy the perfect Taiwanese tea gift—only to hesitate, unsure how to tell a truly good tea from the rest.
That’s where CloudyValley’s Tea Brewing Box comes in.
Each box includes a QR code that opens a simple guide to your tea—its origin, recommended brewing method (water amount, steeping time, and teaware), and tasting notes (aroma, flavor, tea liquor texture, and aftertaste).
Paired with our smart tea app, you can easily control brewing time and tea leaf amount—designed especially for mug brewing, so you don’t need a full tea set.
Just use your favorite mug—even an IKEA FÄRGRIK—and enjoy perfectly brewed tea anytime.
Our app makes brewing interactive and fun, showing your tea’s fragrance, taste, and aftertaste develop in real time with each steep.
It’s more than a tea gift—it’s a modern way to experience, learn, and enjoy Taiwanese tea.
Try it today.
