Té Company
Té Company is the New York tea house founded by Elena Liao and Frederico Ribeiro in 2012, centred on Taiwanese leaves, small teapots and the pleasures of a tea-room pause.
Té Company: origin & history.
Elena Liao and Frederico Ribeiro founded Té Company in New York in 2012 to share Taiwanese tea through thoughtful sourcing and an intimate tea-room experience. The name Té draws on the Hokkien word for tea. Its collection extends beyond oolong into other drinks encountered through sourcing trips. Soba is one such discovery: puffed Taiwanese Tartary buckwheat, prepared as an infusion whose toasted, cereal-like character offers another way into the house’s world.

A few pieces tell the story in their own way, through a shape, a material or a familiar gesture.
A closer look.
What catches our eye.
The tea-room sensibility carries into the home collection: small quantities, clear preparation and attention to the cup. Soba is an interesting change of texture and flavour from a leaf infusion.
