Looking for a new milk tea spot? Look no further than Chayan, which recently opened in Richmond. Chayan is a UK-based shop that serves what it calls “new fashion Chinese tea.” On its social media, it boasts that it has the best frappe and milk tea in the UK.
However, those in the UK may recognize the brand by another name: Tastetea. This is the company’s first overseas outpost. On the menu, you can find four categories of drinks: frappe, chappuccino (similar to a cappuccino but with a premium tea base instead), cream cloud, and tea.
Instead of using tea syrups for its drinks, Chayan brews premium tea leaves (sourced from various provinces in China) in-house and uses locally sourced milk. Additionally, the spot uses smaller straws to enhance the tea aroma. Chayan softly opened its doors on November 6.
