A black tea flavored with strawberries and cream from The Tea Place located in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Company description not available.
So I went to pick up my Verdant from my friend and stopped at the local tea store The Tea Place today, as I looked online and gasp THEY SELL HARNEY & SONS!! I have been wanting to try their teas for ages but have held off due to their apparent Canadian customer service. So I picked up 15 satchets of Paris, came REALLY close to buying a tin of Tower of London, but held off. Also got 50 g of my favorite pear rooibos that the store carries, I’ll have to look for it on Steepster. Oh, and they also have Sloane Tea Company tea, was very tempted by that as well but I will wait a bit, I’ve gone tea crazy today!
Anyways, onto this tea…I looked for it online but could not find the right one I don’t think, so it’s going under unknown, I just got a to go cup of it, and it strangely tastes like a milk oolong, although it’s apparently a Ceylon? And it got massively oversteeped in the to go, but it is still tasty, albeit not as strawberry flavored. And I burnt my tongue miserable on it when I tried to taste it before it got oversteeped :( but overall a tasty cup! Might pick up 50 g at some point! So yes, a very good tea day! This store has a pretty large selection, so I will have to try a bunch more from there!
I have ordered from Harney, and I found the customer service to be fine. I had no issues, received my order in a timely manner, got free samples. The shipping was a bit expensive but still decent, only $15 if order under $50.
Hmm yeah that’s not too bad, I’m happy there’s a good Canadian review :) if Paris is awesome, maybe I’ll place and try a few more from them!
Paris is one of my new favorites! The caribe was also delicious.
Paris = bergamot. That’s all i have to say about that LOL if you like the berg…it is a lovely tea.
Haha i don’t have many bergamot teas so it should be ok, Caribe looks very good! I probably will end up getting some tower of London too it looks yummy
I agree with Lala, no bad experience other than expensive shipping. Their sample sizes are handy.
Good to know! I’ll have to add a bunch to my shopping list :)
I came here to encourage you to try Tower of London as well – SO good! Caribe, Hot Cinnamon Spice and Wedding are my other favorites. Hope you enjoy! xx
Thanks for all the suggestions!! Lol more harney tea is definitely going to be coming in the future :D
