The BASAO Way

BASAO captures tea aromas, fragrances of seasons, the spirit of traditions and the strength offered by nature. This is how our tea creates an authentic and mindful experience which wakes the senses and feeds the soul.

While BASAO is respecting traditions, we have also dedicated ourselves to explore tea in new and creative ways. We believe, that changing perspectives on traditional approaches, can sometimes lead to refreshing new concepts. This is reflected in our products, which carry the quintessence of classic tea reinterpreted.

“A brew for the mind, a cup for the soul.”
