What Is CHAJU?
A modern tea house built around quality tea and the people who grow it.
Our name comes from 茶寿 (chaju) — in Japan, the celebration of a 108th birthday. Break the character for tea apart and it adds up to 108, an idea with roots reaching back through centuries of Chinese tea culture: tea as long life. To us, it also means something simpler: a meaningful life is built from the small rituals we return to every day.
Every tea we serve, sell, or teach traces back to a real farm, a real harvest, and the people behind it. You’ll find their stories here.
Come for the matcha latte you already love. Leave curious about everything else.
