The owners were very helpful and very knowledgeable about the origins of their tea. Be prepared to spend a good amount for the quality!
By far the best tea and ceramics shop in the US. Couldn’t be more of a fan.
Very small and personal shop. We got free tea samples to taste and there's a table to enjoy the tea samples. The people working in there made us feel welcomed and I got help when I was ready to purchase.
Amazing ambiance with amazingly kind staff. I would like to highlight Cinndy, who gave recommendations of the area while I was on vacation.
The tea is well varied and will have one for any person of taste, the books are a fun read with insightful tips on the ceramics and the designs are all beautiful.
Thank you, song tea & ceramics, for the short lived but amazing impression and experience, best wishes.
As a Taiwanese person, I enjoy song tea (especially like their cotton-candy like winter sprout oolong), but the whole brand is just so unnecessarily pretentious and too dang expensive for what it is. For me the problem is that the tea while having a good aroma, doesn’t really have any qi or energy— it’s an okay tea, not an excellent tea. the experience starts in your mouth and just disappears with nowhere to go - so the cup to cup internal experience is not as engaging or interesting. And sadly it applies to all of their teas that they carry.
A unique shop that specializes in all things about tea - from imported tea leaves to beautifully made ceramics. If you ask them they'll offer you a taste of whatever tea they brewed for the day. My husband and I got to sample their Big Leaf Shuixian, an oolong tea from Taiwan. Relaxing vibe here and helpful staff. Just wish they were open more days of the week!
A true gem of a place. The staff member at the front of the shop was knowledgeable, kind, and helpful (I wish I had caught her name!). A lovely selection of teas in a beautiful space.
Loved the tea selection. As a non tea drinker, owner was really helpful with guiding me to my first purchase!
so glad we met Amanda. She’s super welcoming and shared a ton about tea. Her detailed explanations helped us choose the perfect tea flavor to start with. I highly recommend this place for tea lovers especially those into Taiwanese or Fujian teas. Different spectrum and harvest to explore, along with a selection of cool teaware. Great for gifting or treating yourself with some good tea.
Excellent selection and taste

Excellent selection and taste
Absolutely amazing place. Everyone working there is knowledgeable, kind, and helpful. The tea is delicious, especially the wide variety of oolong.
the essence of tea - personified.
Walking into the store is a moment of Zen. The staff make you feel welcomed right away and offer you a sample of the tea they are brewing that day. They have a selection that is unparalleled with a few bits of pottery as well. You should not feel shy and ask staff as many questions as you would like. They are happy to talk to you about t&a clearly passionate about what they do.
Very knowledgeable and generous with the information.
