I almost died of excitement when I saw this place. It’s huge and spacious, with a very zen atmosphere. The owner was extremely nice and passionate about tea, and did a sample brewing of his favorite pu erh. I wish I lived in the area so I could come here often :)

I was lucky to get a table! Their food is awesome and the atmosphere enjoyable. Having the giant selection of tea is an added bonus, but you really come here for the meal.

Awesome community of tea geeks. Offers the real experience of Chinese style tea (gong fu). The real highlight is the weekly Tuesday night Tea-Off!

SUPER tiny, but fun. They didnt have all the teas available on the website though, so I wasn’t able to get everything I was looking for.

I just went here the other day and it was sooo much better than I expected! The staff were very helpful and nice and didn’t try to make me buy more than I wanted. I will definitely be coming here again when I’m back home! (And I didn’t even have their bubble tea yet!)

Profile

Bio

My favorite teas are Taiwan high mountain, Anxi, Wuyi, and dancong oolongs. I also need my deep steamed sencha every now and then. I’m not totally into flavoreds but I’m always up for interesting flavors (like ATR’s Nirvana and Toasted Fig). My favorite natural flavors are roasted and floral.

I have a BA in Biochemistry from Smith College with a minor in Japanese. I have a Masters of Bioscience from Keck Graduate Institute in Claremont, CA.

I love J-R&B and J-Urban and used to do a radio show on WOZQ Northampton, MA. I also play WoW (Aireene on Proudmoore).
