Gong Cha was founded in Kaoshiung, Taiwan in 2006. It was modelled after the popular Taiwan-style bubble tea shops so commonly seen along the streets. Gong Cha is the fastest growing tea brand in Australasia with over 600 stores across Asia, USA, Australia and now in New Zealand.The term ‘Gong Cha’ originates from a practice in ancient China dating back even before 1000 BC. It was a tribute, or an offering of tea to the emperor, and was a collection of the best quality tea selected from throughout the realm.
