The Korean culture brings us together, inspiring us to cultivate meaningful connections and spread unique experiences.
We at Kteashop believe that happiness can be found in the simplest of things, like the aroma of your favorite tea brewing or the sight of a delicious treat. It is thanks to these moments that we can create memories to warm your heart and soul. Our mission is to deliver special moments right to your doorstep, and to enable a community of inclusivness and sharing.
We share a deep passion for Korean culture, which has inspired us to create Ktea Shop, a place where we curate a diverse range of Korean products and provide a welcoming space for people to come together, share stories, and create beautiful memories. Our own journey and the creation of Ktea Shop have taught us valuable lessons. We want to inspire you to pursue your dreams, redefine what success means to you, and prioritize the meaningful moments spent with your loved ones. We believe in the power of resilience, embracing different cultures, and the impact of sharing and caring for one another.
At Kteashop, our core belief is in the power of connection with yourself and the significance of caring for the ones who matter most in your life. We are dedicated to creating moments of self-reflection as well as warmth and togetherness. Through our thoughtfully crafted products and menus, we strive to create unique experiences and connections.
I, as your Tea master, serve each guest with a specific mindset that we call 일기일회 in Korean, meaning “one shot one opportunity”. Life lived in the present can be a present to you, as I serve my guests for the first time as it could be the last time we meet.Our paths may never cross again, but I hope to leave a meaningful message or memory in your journey. Tea will then become a timeless memory shared together.
Thank you for your trust,
Shane Kim
Many people ask why Korea and how I developed my love for its culture, so here is my story. During my teenage years, I traveled to Canada to study English and met some incredible Korean friends who introduced me to their culture. This sparked a deeper connection, leading me to study at Busan National University and Seoul National University, where I fell in love with the magical world of Korean cafes and the warm, unforgettable moments shared with friends. After moving to Switzerland, my husband and I founded KTea Shop to share my passion for Korean culture and bring a piece of Korea into your lives, celebrating the extraordinary experiences that come from embracing and sharing diverse cultures.
