Many people are surprised that we carry tea. In fact many people often come in and say "when did you start carrying tea" or my favorite "I didn't know you carry teas, where are they?" Usually this is followed by the question do you have and lemon zinger. . .No I am sorry we only carry REAL tea. Lemon zinger and many other "teas" are actually herbals, an herbal infusion with some tea, or none, added (usually of very low quality). The teas we carry are all near the register on the front counter in the Tea Tins.
Our tea tins are unique. They are stamped tin and double insulated. There is a lid and then another lid to keep our air. Why you ask? The two main oxidizers that tea faces are light and air (yea, oxygen). So to keep our teas their freshest, besides buying vintage tea every season, we keep them in dark air tight containers. That way when you buy your tea from us, you know it is going to actually be WORTH the money you are spending on it (and we sell smaller versions for you to use at home too). Any one who is selling you tea out of a clear container is not concerned with what they are selling you, but you should be. . . Cheers.
