Theehandlung Schönbichler

Since 1870, Schönbichler has stood for exquisite tea, personal advice, and special gourmet products. In our Viennese tea shop, we combine many years of experience with select rarities, our own tea compositions, and an assortment that you won't find just anywhere.

In our online shop, you will find black tea, green tea, white tea, oolong, herbal tea, fruit tea, rooibos, and honeybush, as well as matcha and special rare teas, among other things. The assortment includes classic origin teas, flavored blends, and exclusive Schönbichler compositions.

First, consider whether you prefer your tea to be strong, malty, floral, fruity, spicy, fresh, or mild. You can use our categories and product descriptions to narrow down the selection. For a personal tea consultation, you can reach us by phone, email, or directly at our tea shop in Vienna.

Our own tea compositions are carefully balanced house blends, prepared according to our own recipes. For this, we combine select teas, herbs, fruits, blossoms, and spices into unique taste experiences with an unmistakable character.

Yes, our range includes numerous organic teas from certified organic cultivation. Whether black tea, green tea, herbal tea, or fruit tea: please look for the corresponding organic label in each product description.

Many fruit, herbal, rooibos, and honeybush teas are naturally caffeine-free. In addition, we carry a selection of decaffeinated black teas. Since individual herbal blends may contain caffeine-containing ingredients such as mate, please always check the information provided for each product.

As a general rule, a slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea is usually enough for about 200 to 250 milliliters of water. However, the ideal dosage depends on the type of tea, the leaf size, and your personal taste. You can find the exact recommendation directly with each tea.

Black tea is usually steeped in water at 90 to 100 °C for about three to five minutes. For green and white tea, a lower water temperature is often recommended. Fruit and herbal tea should be steeped in boiling water and allowed to infuse for a sufficient amount of time. Always follow the preparation instructions for the specific product.

Loose tea should be stored in an airtight, dry, and dark place, protected from foreign odors. Well-sealing tea caddies preserve the aroma and protect the delicate tea leaves from light and moisture. Storage next to strong-smelling spices or coffee should be avoided.
