About Bloom Cup & Our Story
Bloom Cup was founded with a singular vision: to honor centuries of classical botanical tea-scenting traditions while reinterpreting the modern tea bar experience. We craft floral-forward, lighter, and distinctly less sugary beverages that celebrate the pure aromatics of real blossoms and whole tea leaves.
Our heritage and philosophy
Traditional tea cultures have long understood that whole tea leaves possess natural pores capable of absorbing volatile floral aromas. In historical gardens, newly picked blossoms were gently layered over tender green, oolong, and black tea leaves during cool night hours, allowing essential botanical vapors to marry with the leaf.
At Bloom Cup, we continue this heritage. By pairing small-batch scenting with pasture-raised fresh milk, barista-grade oat milk, and hand-whisked Kyoto matcha, our tea bars provide a peaceful, fragrant sanctuary where you can pause, breathe in the aroma, and enjoy tea in its purest expression.
Our guiding pillars
Botanical Purity
We steep real flowers—night-blooming jasmine, golden osmanthus, and damask rose—directly into mountain-harvested leaves for natural, lasting aroma.
Balanced Sweetness
Our house cane syrups are calibrated to enhance tea aromatics rather than drown them in sugar. We champion 30% to 50% sweetness as the gold standard.
Thoughtful Hospitality
From our digital self-order touch kiosks to our wide aroma sipping straws, every detail is engineered to make your visit effortless and memorable.
Sourcing and craftsmanship
Quality at Bloom Cup is uncompromised at every step of the supply chain:
- Seven-Scented Jasmine: Our signature green tea undergoes up to seven consecutive scenting cycles with fresh summer jasmine blooms.
- Single-Origin Ceremonial Matcha: Sourced directly from shaded tencha gardens in Uji and Kyoto, stone-milled slowly to protect its vivid jade color and rich L-theanine umami.
- Fresh Dairy & Plant Milks: We partner with local dairies for organic whole milk and stock specialized barista oat milk that foams without curdling against delicate tea tannins.
