茶 Cha™ — The World of Tea

What is Cha

Built for people who take tea seriously

Cha is not a timer app with a recipe list. It is a complete tea companion — covering the cultures, philosophy, and history of seven great tea nations, with precision brewing guidance, personal journalling, and an AI advisor that knows its subject deeply.

Whether you are just discovering gongfu cha, tracking your way through a collection of Taiwanese oolongs, or looking for the perfect temperature to brew a first-flush Darjeeling — Cha was built for you.

Seven traditions

The world's great
tea cultures

From the ancient tea gardens of Yunnan to the mint-filled silver teapots of Marrakech. Each culture gets a full deep-dive — tea types, ceremony, philosophy, utensils, and history.

🇨🇳

China

The birthplace of tea. 5,000 years of culture, ceremony, and craft — from the Yunnan mountains to the Fujian cliffs.

Dragon Well · Iron Goddess
Pu-erh · Silver Needle · Chenpi

🇯🇵

Japan

Where tea became ceremony. The Chado tradition, the art of matcha, and the world's finest shade-grown gyokuro.

Gyokuro · Matcha
Sencha · Shincha · Hojicha

🇮🇳

India

The champagne of teas and the boldest blacks. Darjeeling's first flush, Assam's malt, and the warmth of masala chai.

Darjeeling · Assam
Masala Chai · Nilgiri

🇹🇼

Taiwan

High-mountain oolongs of breathtaking complexity. Ali Shan, Li Shan, and the extraordinary leafhopper-kissed Oriental Beauty.

Oriental Beauty · Muzha Tieguanyin

🇲🇦

Morocco

Tea as hospitality. The silver teapot, the fresh mint, the arc of the pour — one of the world's most distinctive tea traditions.

Mint Tea · Orange Blossom
Wormwood · Thyme & Sage

🇻🇳

Vietnam

Ancient Shan Tuyet trees over 800 years old. The most labour-intensive tea on earth — lotus tea from Hanoi's West Lake.

Shan Tuyet · Lotus Tea
Thai Nguyen Green · Trà Đá

Korea

Dado — the Way of Tea. Korea's tradition is rooted in Buddhist monastery culture and four principles: balance, harmony, respect, and simplicity.
