This is who we are
Lupicia started out in Japan in 1994 and actually began as two separate tea stores. First as a black tea specialty store called "L'epicier", meaning grocery store in French. Then a few years later a specialty tea store offering green teas from China and Japan called "緑碧茶園 Lu Pi Cha En", meaning jade green tea garden in Chinese, was opened.
In 2005 the company decided to become a purveyor of world teas and combined the two stores and the two names resulting in the name "LUPICIA". In a sense, it is a blending of cultures that envisions the hope to spread the wonderful flavors of tea and a tea drinking culture throughout the world.
LUPICIA offers more than 400 kinds of fresh teas throughout the year, ranging from seasonal teas to our original blends of flavored teas.We invite you to journey into the fascinating world of tea with LUPICIA FRESH TEA.
In order to insure freshness, we pack most of our teas in 50-gram packages filled with nitrogen. There are also tin-packed teas suitable for gifts or for storage. (Tin will be provided separately for product which exceeds tin volume.)
