A world of tea since 1835The story of A.C. Perch's Thehandel begins in Copenhagen, Denmark. Trade was blooming, especially goods from the far East, and in April 1835 Niels Brock Perch opened a small shop in Copenhagen. The shop was named 'A.C. Perch's Thehandel' after his third-oldest son, Axel Christian Perch. The goal of the business was to sell the best tea from all over the world. The Perch family run the shop until 1894, after which the Hincheldey family took over. In 1927, the teashop was handed over to one of the company's, perhaps, most famous figures, Ludvig Ferdinand Hincheldey, who had a great passion for tea.In 2002, on April 16th, marking the Tea store's 167th birthday and the Danish Queen's 62nd birthday, A.C. Perch's Thehandel had the great honor of being appointed Royal Court Supplier. Today the company is run by the siblings, Stine Hincheldey Alwen and Christian Hincheldey, being the 5th generation of the Hincheldey family.Products from A.C.
