To many people the sheer number and variety of teas is at first overwhelming. One of our tasks as tea merchants is to demystify loose leaf tea so that our customers will find themselves well on their way to a good understanding of tea in all its varieties. We are enthusiastic and passionate about our fine teas and try to take every opportunity to infect our customers with our contagious love and enthusiasm for choice, rare teas. It is, however, the tea that does the talking. For it is in the tasting of fine tea that one begins to understand why we are so excited about tea. Sniffing jars, daily teas to sample, and the courteous knowledgeable staff will welcome you to our world of tea. Please visit the store if you are in Chicago. We are close to the Green and Blue El lines and the west line commuter train.
