Just The FAQ

We depend on (2) essentials when sourcing our tea: our picky taste buds and our personal relationships with some of the finest tea growers to ensure excellent taste, quality, environmental stewardship, and reasonable prices for our customers. We've been at this for 20 years and still relish the quest for amazing tea.

A walk in Washington Square Park, a day at the beach, a backyard BBQ, a slice at the local pizza place to name a few. The every day experiences of life are our inspirations. We love to make gift sets with reusable and recyclable materials, such as glass vials, wooden boxes, and pulp paper clamshells. The combination of sustainability with delicious ingredients is a major factor in the design and curation of our sets.

Revised Review

After living with this tea for a while I've grown to appreciate it more and more. Like a coy mistress it does not give up all its favors on first flush, but gets better and better on repeated infusions exhibiting an aromatic floral aroma, subtle sweetness and exquisite mouth feel out to the fourth infusion and beyond. This is now my favorite.

Enjoyed the quality and flavor of this tea (my favorite is Ancient Beauty). Can you give guidance as per measuring tea for brewing, because it seems obvious that a teaspoon of Gunpowder would hold more than a teaspoon of Silver Needle.

I don’t have access to a good local tea shop. Sullivan Street’s online shopping was great experience. The shipping was fast. The only thing it lacks is the ability to smell all the great things in a proper tea shop. For that, I will blame the internet and not the shop.

Light, enchanting, and large leaved. It's a gentle wake up cup.
