Chado: The Way of Tea is a welcome addition to the Hobart café and food store scene. They have a broad selection of teas which you can sample on the premises or buy to take away. We particularly like the teas from northern China in the Huangzhou area including the Dragonwell Premium from the Long Jin area.If you need assistance just ask for help from the incredibly knowlegeable owner or any of the staff who will guide you towards a tea that wil appeal your taste.One of the reasons why we like it so much is that it is very fresh. Tea becomes stale very quickly if it is not kept in cool conditions away from the light. Delicate Chinese teas such as the Long Jin should be used within a year or so of harvest date.We also like the Imperial Huang Shan Mao Feng from the inland Anhui province, the Fu Shou Shan Oolong from high in the mountains of Taiwan and the very delicate Silver Needle Reserve from Fujian.They also serve some interesting Japanese food snacks served on bowls of rice or in bento boxes.
