Icha Tea

A Taiwanese tea shop operating as a hybrid retail and beverage counter, selling ceremonial-grade matcha, loose-leaf teas prepared drinks for immediate consumption.

Yonge-Doris · North York2 SHEPPARD AVE E, #221

The newest Taiwanese restaurant registered in Toronto, as of September 17, 2026. First seen in official City of Toronto records on September 17, 2026.

The kitchen distinguishes itself through focus on traditional tea preparation methods and curated single-origin loose leaves unavailable at commodity tea chains. The counter serves both walk-in customers seeking fresh-brewed tea and online shoppers building home collections, positioning the operation as part tea bar, part specialty importer. Ceremonial matcha, stone-ground into a fine powder and whisked into a frothy preparation, anchors the in-store menu and represents the operation's core product line, differentiating it from bubble tea spots that treat tea as a component rather than the centrepiece.
