Harvest Qi Tea is a small company based in Richmond Hill, ON, that focuses on curated, specialty East Asian loose-leaf teas. Founded in early 2025, the company's philosophy is rooted in the principle of authenticity, quality, and the commitment to direct sourcing and close collaboration with our partner farmers.

​

The company's name is inspired by cha qi, (pronounced 'chee') which translates to "tea energy." This term describes a profound sensation often experienced when drinking tea, manifesting as tranquility and euphoria. Cha Qi is fundamentally the vital life force or energy of the body—a concept central to Chinese philosophy that informs our dedication to providing an exceptional and invigorating tea experience.
