Nice tea shop on west 4th. I decided to get a bowl of matcha ($12). On the pricier side but it was very flavorful and delicious. Was nice watching them prepare all the teas.
Super fun tea tasting experience, calm vibes, and yummy unique tea varietals! We had a white tea and green tea and loved both!
My favorite tea shop which i only discovered yesterday, thanks to my zen priest friend omg this was an exciting adventure of stories, and smells to explore, as each display tells its own story full of adventure and awe soaked in the Stillness and aromas. Its the type of space where as a spiritual practitioner I wanted to get rid of everything in my apartment and replace it with this teaspoon where I sit, create, write, and do my Magick of rituals all day. This is definitely my new regular go to tea place 🙏😍😇✨️🍵
This is such a calm and unhurried place, perfect if you want to slow down and enjoy tea. They have a huge variety of teas for every taste. I really liked the cozy interior, full of small details that you can keep noticing while you sit there. The atmosphere feels very welcoming. What touched me most was when it started raining heavily and we had no umbrellas or jackets, the staff kindly gave us a spare umbrella. That was such a thoughtful gesture. I definitely recommend this spot!
2025/07 Been to this Tea House twice so far. Both are splendid sessions. Yesterday we had this Hashiri (Green tea new leaf). It's one of the best green tea I have had so far. We had 4 washes and it's a plethora of senses. The 1st round is super fresh and rich in flavor, as if tasting a blob of spring. The 2nd round is full of umami, a taste often ignored in Western drinks. The 3rd round had less umami, and the bittersweetness starts to take over. In the 4th and final round every taste is more blended and homogeneous. Definitely recommending this place to tea tasters.
