Great little place. To be clear this is a tea merchant, not a teashop. Luckily that’s exactly what I was looking for. The staff are very polite, friendly, and knowledgeable, they’re not pushy salesmen or impatient with you, and are happy to guide you through their selection. The teas themselves (I sampled only some greens and oolongs) are very reasonably priced and delectable, and sold by the oz (with no big markups for low quantities). I wound up leaving with a pound total of 8 different teas. They also stock some tea accessories as would be expected including gaiwan, cups, infusers, and pots. As I understand it, they even roast their own TGY in-house and are planning to expand with a small sitting area as well. Overall I’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys eastern teas, and suggest a visit to anyone who likes blended teas as well, as they seemed to have a large selection of those.
