I consider myself a tea purist. This store does offer a great selection (of blends only available there), but don't go there without a LOT of money!!



First they rope you in with free samples, & don't tell you that they are usually blends, which will cost you more to buy. Once they make your blend, don't be surprised if the weight is over a little. Of course, once mixed, they can't put the tea back in the individual canisters.

Ahh, the canisters... this is the real hook. They convince you to buy their air tight, light proof canister (sounds like any other tin, to me). There are various sizes, but they don't give you all that info, either, so you have to buy the larger one. What they DON'T tell you is that you can take it home in a plastic baggie, to be stored anyway you like.



My 9 year old was very interested, thus the suck in to the store. I won't set another foot in this establishment, other than bringing them back their $6 tin & telling them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine.
