Great atmosphere, very weak tea. I’m sure it’s a great spot if you happen to like very delicate brews, but they don’t appreciate requests to steep the tea longer and it is very very light. Their black tea was weak the two times I’ve been here - like are you sure this is tea it has no flavor at all kind of weak - and there won’t be a third time.
Great experience as a tea beginner! I came based on a friend’s recommendation when I said I wanted to start buying better (read: non supermarket) tea for myself but was overwhelmed by the options. I tried a cup before buying some, and received detailed instructions and advice on brewing. The folks were super nice and the space is great too.
This is truly a special place. The quality of this tea remains unmatched in my research and efforts across the US and online.
Not only are the leaves the finest, their knowledge of the history, the process of producing, and the benefits of the varieties they sell is exceptional.
