Share your opinion about The Tao of Tea

Thank you, Tao of Tea, for making Beautiful products. I was fortunate enough to have a friend gift me a white tea and oolong set, along with a beautiful steeping cup <3
Not only do I enjoy the beauty of the cup every time I use it, but your teas have become quick favorites. Black Dragon, for one, is my "perfect black tea."

Either with breakfast or later in the day, they each help me relax and enjoy as tea should.
Everything perfect! A whole experience.
We always love going to Tao of Tea. It’s a little bit like being transported to another place. The staff are friendly and helpful and the selection of international bites is mostly vegan, all vegetarian.
