Welcome to Boloarte, your haven of tranquility and tradition in today’s fast-paced world.
We believe that tea is not just a hot drink; it is a moment of pause, a ritual of harmony and a sensorial journey. Our story began with a simple cup of Pu-erh and the desire to share the true culture of Chinese tea (Gongfu Cha) with Portugal.
Often, the tea we find on supermarket shelves is just a shadow of what this camellia sinensis plant can offer. We were born to change that. Our mission is to shorten the distance between the misty mountains of Yunnan and your home, offering a selection that respects nature, the producer and, above all, your taste buds.
“We don’t just sell tea, we deliver the experience of a thousand years of history in each leaf.”
Why Choose Boloarte?
In a vast market, we distinguish ourselves by our respect for the product. Here are the four pillars that define our brand:
1. Exclusive Curation
We don’t try to have “everything”, we try to have the best. Each batch of tea in our store is tasted and carefully selected. We work directly with growers in Yunnan, Fujian and Zhejiang provinces to ensure you receive teas with authentic terroir, harvested at the right time and processed by experienced tea masters.
2. “Whole Leaf” Quality
Say goodbye to industrial tea powder. At Boloarte, we defend the supremacy of the whole leaf. By preserving the leaf, we keep the essential oils, antioxidants and flavor complexity intact. This allows you to make multiple infusions with the same leaves, discovering new aromatic notes with each “round”.
3. Authentic Accessories
We know that the right utensil makes all the difference. To extract the true potential of an aged Oolong or Pu-erh, the proper equipment is necessary. We offer a range of Yixing clay teapots, porcelain gaiwans and bamboo trays, chosen both for their functionality and their aesthetic beauty.
4. Fast Shipping from Portugal 🇵🇹
Forget about long waits for international orders and unpleasant surprises at customs.
- National Stock: All of our products are already in Portuguese territory.
- Fast Delivery: We ship orders within 24/48 hours.
- No Extra Fees: The price you see is the final price.
