Tropical Quench, Inc. is excited to offer Flamingo Bloom, Hong Kong’s trendiest tea salon, to the Philippine market. Healthy and hydrating, tea is deeply rooted in Hong Kong culture. Over the centuries, tea has played many roles in traditional wellness and beauty practices. But despite its wide consumption, there are few contemporary options available for urbanites on the go.
Flamingo Bloom aims to revolutionize society’s concept of teas. Beyond the traditional hot drinks, teas can now easily be enjoyed over ice, with fruits, matcha, or salted milk cap. These combinations offer healthier, yet refreshingly tasty, drinks.
Flamingo Bloom’s all-natural teas are made-to-order and contain no synthetic additives, ingredients or powders. Every tea has been carefully chosen from high altitude tea regions in China and Taiwan, where fewer pesticides are used in the cultivation process.
“Despite the long tradition of tea drinking in Hong Kong, it can be a struggle to find all-natural, high-quality and healthy takeout tea,” says founder Benjamin Ang. The commitment to quality continues into every Flamingo Bloom product, from Highland loose leaf teas, to real fruits (no synthetic flavors!) and golden boba.
What’s on the menu? The experience begins by choosing one a base tea: Jasmine Green Tips tea from Fujian, Highland Oolong from Taiwan or Chrysanthemum Pu’er from Yunnan.
Flamingo Bloom brews fresh batches of these base teas every few hours, using only premium whole tea leaves — never dust or powder. Crafting these high-quality, loose-leaf teas is an art itself. The Jasmine Green tea, for example, is extremely delicate, requiring specific conditions to brew properly. If either the temperature or timing is off, the resulting tea will taste bitter and lose its amazing aroma.
