Our Story
Lost in Flow
- Lost in flow in the modern,
- relief East into the olden.
- Ancient tree we seek,
- forest go deep.
- Ancient we meet,
- we bow beneath your feet.
- "How shall we find flow?",
- a wise old tree should know.
- No answer given,
- head hung low.
- Just a gust, a wind and a rustle,
- A fallen leaf blows.
- Leaves in hand,
- let go.
- Drink tea...
- Bhava Cha
Our Vision
At Bhava Cha our mission is to become tea and be found in flow. Our name tells of our philosophy the tea of becoming. “Bhava” in
Sanskrit means becoming and “Cha” in Chinese means tea. Inspired by the Bhava Chakra – the wheel of life – we seek to break from the endless cycle – drink tea and be found in flow.
Our Tea
What’s different about wild and ancient tree teas?
Just Tea, But Better
This is not herbal tea. It is the same tea you know from the original tea plant but grown differently. It's grown semi-wild or wild from big or ancient tea trees not plantation bushes. These older trees grow slowly, developing greater depth, strength, and character.
Taste the Difference
Most commercial teas are grown in crowded plantations, trimmed and harvested by machines to maximise yield. Our teas are handpicked from wild, untamed trees in sacred tea mountains. Each leaf is handpicked by locals guided by generations of tradition—resulting in a tea that carries depth, vitality, and a story in every sip.
Tea with Depth
Unlike plantation-grown tea bushes, our ancient tea trees sink their roots deep into mineral-rich, biodiverse mountain soils. This depth nourishes leaves with complexity, yielding a rich, layered taste that unfolds over many infusions—while ordinary teas often fade after just a few brews.
Sustainably Harvested
Wild-harvested from biodiverse mountain ecosystems — Our tea is naturally grown with no pesticides, fertilizers, no Compromise only whole leaf. Each leaf is picked by traditional custodians of their land who respect and preserve the ecosystem for future generations.
Direct Partnerships
We partner directly with artisanal tea masters and generational tea makers. By cutting out middlemen we ensure that each tea we is ethically sourced, culturally rooted, and crafted with mindful intention.
Tea with Life Force
Our curation of teas are specially selected for their cha qi (tea energy) - the awakened presence, and vitality it carries. This profound energetic quality are found especially in wild and ancient tea trees, whose deep roots draw from the living essence of untouched forests. Our teas aren’t just for taste; they’re chosen to energise the body, support meditation, and sharpen awareness.
