TEA, ART & MINDFUL LIVING

At POEMS Tea Atelier, we bridge the heritage of the art of tea with the pulse of modern life.

We operate as a collective: a small team of tea enthusiasts in Sydney bringing you the life’s work of independent Japanese farmers & artisans who treat their craft as a lifelong devotion.

Our mission is direct: to share honest, exceptional tea experience with you. We believe that the finest tea is a collaborative work of art. By working hand-in-hand with farmers & artisans, we ensure that every leaf and vessel in our collection is a genuine reflection of Japanese heritage.

We are here to bring you the purity of authentic craftsmanship, tea you can trust and beauty you can feel in every moment of calm.

The Tea

Our matcha & teas are the fruit of a shared vision. Working directly with our partners on independent farms in Uji and Shizuoka, we prioritise exceptional flavour and heritage over mass production.

Every tea we select tells the unique story of its terroir and the dedicated hands that cultivated it. We believe exceptional tea is about honouring tradition, supporting our farming communities, and creating an authentic tea experience that truly matters.

Why Organic Matters?

The Art

An Atelier is a place of expertise and curation. We believe the objects you hold should be as technically sound as the tea you drink.

We collaborate with artisans from Japan’s most renowned kiln regions to bring you the most beautiful handmade teaware. They are functional artworks forged from the earth by master potters. Each piece in our collection is a companion to your daily rhythm, forged from the earth and brought to those who value authenticity.

Finding your own rhythm

Mindful Living

Mindful living is a practice of connection, to the earth, the maker, and yourself. We provide the elements to claim a brief interlude in a fast-moving day. By uniting the integrity of the leaf with the expertise of the vessel, we help you compose a space of quiet depth.

This is an invitation to slow down and find your center. At POEMS, we offer the quiet architecture for a life lived well, rooted in respect for the nature and people behind every cup.
