Tavalon embodies pleasure, wellness and opulence, employing centuries-old tea traditions from hand-crafted tea through to the selection of the finest ingredients from exclusive tea farms from all around the world. The warmth envelops you and acts as an escape- even just for a moment- from the stresses of daily life. The humble cup of tea is not only a catalyst to relaxation; its daily consumption
also has a plethora of benefits for your health, not to mention the traditions of tea and the many ways it brings people together socially - its magic is something that is hard to describe merely with words. Unfortunately, many people in Australia are not aware of the benefits of tea drinking and the simple joy it provides. Upon this realisation, health-conscious and luxury-oriented entrepreneur, Matthew Youn, decided that it's time to change this. Headquartered in New York City since 2005, Tavalon operates global offices in Dubai, Cairo, Hong Kong, Phnom Pehn, Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai and has launched its operations in Australia with offices in Sydney and on the Gold Coast. Tavalon offers the finest, most exclusive tea and tea-related products via e-commerce, wholesale, and retail channels. Tavalon specialises in premium-grade, gourmet loose-leaf teas, as well as tea based products, sourced from boutique tealeaf farms by the in-house tea sommelier in the New York City headquarters. Tavalon currently partners with over 8,000 clients worldwide. These include exclusive hotels, Michelin-starred restaurants, gourmet cafes and eateries, and global brands, Google, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan, Formula 1, The Plaza Hotel, Langham Place, Park Hyatt, International Emmy Awards, Tiffany & Co, Magnolia Bakery and MTV Awards, just to name a few. Tavalon's mission is to create the best tea blends the world has ever known and deliver the luxurious experience of tea drinking to suit the Australian palate. For too long, tea has played a minimal role in Australia, overshadowed by the seemingly ubiquitous coffee bean empire, and mired in its own “traditional” image, our goal is to drive tea back into the beverage spotlight by presenting a fresh, new, accessible face of tea in the form of Tavalon.
