Dofo Tea's Philosophy

We Choose Loose Leaf Tea, Always

We never use tea bags because we believe nothing should stand between you and the true character of exceptional tea.

Loose leaves have room to fully expand, releasing their complete flavor, aroma, and natural richness. Watching the leaves gradually unfold is also part of the experience—a small ritual that connects you to the tea and the centuries-old traditions behind it.

It may take a little extra time, but we believe the finest Chinese teas are worth slowing down for.

In today's world of rapid development everywhere, everyone rushes through life. You might as well slow your pace, calm your mind, and use our Gongfu brewing method to craft a cup of high-quality Chinese tea that steadies your breathing. This is all something worth taking the time to experience.

Gongfu Brewing Guide

Here’s our suggested brewing method—you can adjust the tea amount, water volume, temperature, and steeping time to suit your personal taste. For the best experience, we recommend using purified water rather than tap or mineral water. Beginners can start with a regular or simplified brewing method, and if you’re interested in exploring our traditional Gongfu brewing technique, feel free to contact our customer service to book a one-on-one online brewing session.

I love it

What a great find from the Dofotea brand! I drink a maximum of 2 cups of this black Zhengshan Xiaozhong Tea every day. I like how the flavour doesn’t hit you all at once and sort of unfolds slowly. The tea is soothing and relaxing, and does not overly push you to guess the flavour right away.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your valuable feedback and for your trust. Your satisfaction is our greatest motivation. We will continue to work hard to bring you high-quality tea, and we wish you a wonderful day with a good cup of tea.

great

I'm so glad I found Dofo tea. I've been drinking tea for a long time, and this shop has enriched my tea selection. The Zhengshan Xiaozhong black tea is delicious even after brewing two cups, and the taste is excellent. I like to brew it strong, so I put a little extra tea leaves in the teapot... and I'm always very satisfied.

Thank you very much for your love and support for our tea products. Your satisfaction is our greatest motivation! We are very happy to know that you are satisfied with our tea. We sincerely hope that it can bring more good times to your life. We look forward to providing you with more exquisite tea and thoughtful service in the future!

Great

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re glad our tea met your expectations—each leaf is hand-picked and processed to preserve its natural fragrance and smooth taste. Your encouragement inspires us to keep delivering quality.

A robust smoky flavor

A robust smoky flavor with hints of sweetness that taste like Autumn. Rich in flavor and color, I enjoy Zhongshan Xiaozhong Black Tea with breakfast as it goes nicely with anything from grits or oatmeal to pancakes and waffles!

The tea is smooth and fragrant, love it!
