A few steps away from our flagship store, in Rua Poço dos Negros, sits a place where time seems to slow down. Companhia Portugueza do Chá is a store that emanates tradition and charm, where the art of preparing and enjoying tea is taken seriously. It’s one of our favorite stores in our neighborhood and Lisbon.
Housed in an old shoe shop dating from 1880, the original furniture has been kept, and as soon as you enter, you are greeted by a sweet and welcoming fragrance that envelops you. Every corner offers a visual and olfactorily sensory journey through the world of tea. The shelves are filled with colorful tins displaying a variety of teas. Choosing is the hardest part.
It’s hard to choose our favorites, but in the evenings, we're all about oolongs. When it comes to green teas, we've got a soft spot for Chinese favorite, Bizika Miao. Milky oolongs? And for a nutty twist, white teas are our go-to, especially from the Azores or the silver tips. And let's not forget about chai – the regular and rooibos coco chai? Both are absolute winners.
