Very nice little store! The interior is beautiful, with lots of tea and teaware laid out artistically along the walls. The general aesthetic is modern with an Asian lean, and the staff was cheerful and helpful. The tea itself is also quite good with a large selection (although it was a bit pricier to match, TT.TT) and I believe the owner actually sources a lot of the tea from his own tea farms. They had an interesting array of wagashi and sweets to go with the teas as well.
I’ll definitely come back again, will have to cajole two others into coming with me to try the cupping session, :).
