Good day all!
I haven’t been into tea since Starbucks bought my favourite tea store quite a while back. looking to get back into regularly brewing some. West coast USA here if that helps narrow it down.
Thanks in advance.
Some global options which I have myself tried:
- Yunnan Sourcing - Huge Yunnan based shop. Mainly blacks and dry store puers
- Yunnan Craft - A smaller alternative to Yunnan Sourcing
- Yunomi - Japanese teas
- Thes Du Japon - More Japanese teas
- What-Cha - UK based all around tea shop
- King Tea Mall - Puer teas with more aggressive storage, but also a bit of everything
- Crimson Lotus Tea - Boutique fresh sheng
- Yee On Tea Co - HK teas
- Teas We Like - Curated shengs
Tea Adventures has a long list of online stores that sell tea and teaware. There’s a search field that can be used to filter the list. For example, a search for “teaw states” gives a list of stores in The United States that sells teaware.
Looks like a nice resource, thanks!
I get matcha from ippodotea and i get my oolongs from farmer leaf.
I cant recommend any others yet since i havent found a very good store for general teas like black, puer, etc
Try to stay away from youtuber sellers since they mark up their prices like crazy
Can recommend https://yunnansourcing.com/
Sort by best sellers and have a browse, or maybe try a sampler. I’ve never been disappointed with an order. Consider trying one of my personal favorites- Lapsang pinewood smoked black tea. It’s absolutely lovely~
I’ve been liking Yuuki Cha (yuuki-cha.com) - organic Japanese teas. And heretically enough I’ve been doing cool water infusion. It’s great!
