Coffee and Tea Festival in Philly

Has anyone ever gone to the Coffee and Tea festival before in Philly? I’ve been wanting to go for a few years, but never have. I have a little extra vacation time and was thinking of making the trip up. Not sure if anyone else has been.

Here’s the website if anyone is interested:

If it’s anything like the one in New York it should be great. The one in New York had something like 80 or 100 tea vendors and maybe fifteen coffee vendors. I’ve gone to the one in NY twice in a row and ended up buying a lot of tea each time. They might have some good seminars too but you have to sign up ahead of time. At the NY one they had an interesting seminar on Puerh Tea and other aged teas.

It’s by the same people who also have one in NYC, so it’s probably the same.

Wow tea outnumbers coffee?? That NEVER happens.

I’m pretty sure it’s run by the same people because the web pages look a lot alike. The names are nearly identical too except for the city name.

The web page for the festival should show you the vendors that have already signed up. There were a lot at the NY show. This was basically one big tea and coffee sale with a few seminars too. There were no sellers of Puerh at the NY show this year. There was one seller of puerh at last year’s show. But all the rest of the tea types were represented. You could find black tea, green tea, white tea, herbal tea etc. Everything but puerh was represented.

Are you setting up as a vendor or just as an attendee?

Just a dude who is wanting to drink tea with people :)
