CHAGEE Partners with Laufey for a New Chapter in U.S. Expansion

CHAGEE, the innovative Modern Teahouse brand that is changing the way we view tea, is excited to announce a partnership with Laufey, the acclaimed 2x GRAMMY-winning musician. This collaboration marks a significant step in CHAGEE's journey to redefine tea drinking as an enriching and design-oriented lifestyle experience in the U.S. market.

A New Campaign: "A Sip of Time"

The brand’s new campaign, titled "A Sip of Time," draws inspiration from the importance of slowing down in our fast-paced lives. This initiative aims to elevate tea not merely as a drink but as a meaningful ritual that encourages reflection and connection in our everyday lives.

On May 2, CHAGEE plans to celebrate this partnership at their latest location in the Americana at Brand, Los Angeles, by hosting an exclusive private performance featuring Laufey herself. Known for her captivating compositions that weave together the elements of jazz and classical music, Laufey will present an intimate show that pairs her enchanting melodies with customized tea experiences. This event is expected to draw local tea enthusiasts and music lovers alike, making it a landmark occasion for both CHAGEE and Laufey.

CHAGEE’s Unique Approach to Tea

Set in one of the bustling retail hubs in Los Angeles, CHAGEE's newest location will reflect their vision of creating holistic tea experiences. Unlike traditional beverage-serving establishments, CHAGEE's philosophy centers around making tea a sensory experience that invites patrons to linger and engage deeply, transforming tea drinking into a deliberate and enjoyable ritual. "We envision tea as a bridge connecting tradition with modern life, enabling moments of pause and reflection amidst our busy days," said Emily Chang, CCO of CHAGEE.

Laufey serves as the perfect ambassador for this vision. Her music, which resonates with themes of presence and meaning—combining elements of classical jazz with contemporary storytelling—mirrors the essence of what CHAGEE aims to promote. "Tea has always held a personal significance for me, connecting me to my roots and family traditions. Partnering with CHAGEE allows me to share this intimate experience through my music," she expressed.

Exclusive Offers for Attendees

Those wishing to attend the private performance will have exclusive access through the purchase of CHAGEE's specially curated Laufey Tea Latte Bundle, available only in-store. Each bundle features two Boya Tea Lattes—named after a legend connecting music and cultural storytelling—and includes a unique QR code that offers a chance to win concert tickets for future events. This innovative approach not only promotes the upcoming performance but also solidifies CHAGEE's lifestyle brand ethos, where community engagement and cultural offerings go hand in hand.

About Laufey

Laufey, pronounced 'lay-vay,' has garnered immense acclaim, especially among the younger generation, through her imaginative fusion of jazz and pop.

Her unique sound, characterized by softness and depth, aims to evoke a sense of intimacy in the listener, aligning perfectly with the tea-focused experiences that CHAGEE promotes.

As CHAGEE continues on its expansion journey in the U.S., this partnership with Laufey promises to transform how consumers view tea and to foster a deeper sense of community, creating connections that last beyond the warm steam of every cup. With upcoming events and a bright future, both CHAGEE and Laufey are set to redefine how we think about tea and music, one sip and one song at a time.
