About Red Blossom Tea Company

Red Blossom Tea Company is a family shop at 831 Grant Ave in San Francisco's Chinatown, at that address since 1985. The Luong family began with an herb and tea shop on Jackson Street after leaving Vietnam, and the current store sells loose tea, Yixing pots and gaiwans. It is closed Tuesdays.

The family buys directly from farmers in China and Taiwan and lists teas by harvest, such as Fu Shou Shan, Spring 2026. The range covers white, green, oolong and aged pu-erh. Start with Pre-rain Dragonwell or Silver Needle Reserve; the Ru Kiln cups and gaiwans are worth a look in person.
