Moychay PhuketTea house & tea ceremonies in Bangtao, Phuket
Part of Moychay, an international tea culture company
Your quiet place in Phuket
You don't need to know anything about tea to come in. Guests book a ceremony, work over a matcha latte, or just want a quiet corner away from the beach.
Inside: concrete walls, calligraphy, a rattan peacock chair and shelves of teapots.
We have more than 200 teas, a collection of antique teaware, board games and a cosy reading corner. Some of the teaware is for sale – the tea master will help you choose. We speak English, Russian and Thai.
Our teas
No need to know any of this before you come. Point at a jar, and the tea master will brew it for you.
White tea
Light and delicate, with notes of honey and dried flowers.
Green tea
Fresh and grassy, sometimes brothy, always bright.
Light oolongs
Soft, floral and sweet – halfway between green and black tea.
Dark oolongs
Roasted and rich, with notes of dark chocolate and toasted nuts.
Red tea (what the West calls black tea)
Warming and smooth, with dried fruit and soft spice.
Young raw pu-erh (sheng)
Fresh, vivid and a little grassy – energizing and clean.
Aged raw pu-erh (sheng)
The same tea, matured for 10+ years into something deep and complex.
Shu pu-erh & dark tea
Earthy and grounding – a good match after a heavy meal.
Lao cha (aged tea)
Years of careful storage turn bitterness into smooth, layered depth.
Herbal tea
Caffeine-free infusions of herbs, flowers and fruit – calming or energizing.

In Phuket since 2024
Moychay Phuket is part of Moychay – an international tea culture company founded in 2009 and based in Amsterdam, with tea clubs in Barcelona, Yerevan, Tbilisi, Phuket, Atlanta and Utrecht. Moychay works directly with more than 700 suppliers, tea farmers and artisan workshops in China, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand and Georgia, and sells only natural loose-leaf tea – no artificially flavoured teas.
The room is small: locals and travellers share one table, and the tea master is here to explain, not to upsell.
