We visit every shop at least twice, pay our own way, and don't announce ourselves. Scores are based on pearl texture, tea quality, flavor originality, and whether the place feels like somewhere you'd actually want to be. Read the full breakdown →

If you sell tea, run a shop, or make equipment that doesn't suck, we're open to working together. Sponsored content gets labeled. Rankings don't get bought. Simple as that.
