Security Blanket: Gong Cha's now in the Philippines!

Gong Cha is now in the Philippines!

Gong Cha finally opened its doors to the Philippine market this month of May. Located at the ground floor of SM Mall of Asia, it offers customers the best milk tea experience ever.

A combination of the characters “gong” (貢) which means reward or contribution and “cha” (茶) referring to the tea plant, Gong Cha refers to the best tea offered to the Emperor in ancient China.

Gong Cha was first launched in Kaohsiung, Taiwan in 2006. There are over 100 outlets worldwide spreading from Taiwan to Hong Kong, Singapore, Macau, China and now the Philippines.

Gong Cha sets the highest standard when choosing materials, and takes the most severe attitude in quality control in order to provide the best tea with the most considerate services to the customers.

The company insists on choosing materials that are healthy to people, and use Taiwanese fresh tea to make every beverage. So sever is the quality control that even though the liquid tea doesn’t go bad, it is thrown away every four hours.

Gong Cha offers beverages such as blended with coffee, caramel, chocolate and milk. They also have ice cream for those with extra sweet tooth. But one MUST try their Gong Cha House Special. It is a combination of brewed green tea with sweetened creamed milk for a delightfully unique blend. It’s perfect for soothing the mind, body and soul.
