20230912 So glad I finally made it! Wow! This store has so many different tea. I looked around online first before stopping in and had my shopping list ready. I looked around first, and there is much stuffed neatly packed into this store. Kind of reminds me of a Hallmark gift shop but for tea. The owner I met today is 1 of the 4 owners. She got me samples of the 5 tea I was interested in to see and smell, and she provided a card with info on ingredients for each tea. What’s interesting is that she quickly collected each card as she brought another sample out. I picked 3 to try and will order if I end up liking them. I also bought 2 that were on sale, sounded yummy and fruity. You can also order tea to drink thereor to go. They have a nice counter set up for that. The owner was helpful, informative, and professional. There was 2 ladies there looking to buy tea but they were there when I got there and after I left. For some reasons, I felt rushed. I would have prefer a little friendlier and welcoming service. I prefer my shopping experience more fun, rather than just a business transaction… order, pay and leave. It’s all about the experience. I still tipped her 15% for my purchase, even though she didn’t spend much time with me. She quickly returned to those 2 customers and 1 just walked in as I was leaving. Will update this review once I have a chance to try the tea when I got home. Hope the tea is good.
202207 One of the things that annoys me most is… when I’m on vacation, finally made it to a business, and they are closed!! I’m heading home tomorrow and unlikely to make it back. Oh well… maybe I will take my chances and order online when I get home.

I LOVE Louisville tea company. I’m the type who just likes to try different things so I thrive off their 3 tea sampler for $16 (you pick your own flavors). These go a long way too, I would say I get about 6 tea cups (not mug) worth of servings per bag. It’s not just a place to buy loose leaf tea, you can also get drinks there as well. There are places to sit and you are welcome to but it’s definitely more of a store than a cafe.
Recommendations (I prefer black teas):
Their flavored and seasonal teas are pretty good but the best kind are the Pu-erhs: Chocolate Puerh, Sticky Rice Tuo Cha, Pistachio Puerh…fantastic black teas. Lapsang Souchong and rocky oolong are good too. The blue chai is also fun and delicious (it really is blue, just make sure you get a flower in there). I have tried so many already and there are plenty more to explore.

I always love coming here to sample teas, learn about new ones and add to my collection. This store literally has everything for a true tea afficiando. Staff is always warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. There are many great gift sets, tea accessories and sample boxes as well.

I went for a tea and cheese tasting to try some of their tea. Staff was very knowledgeable, but I had to ask multiple questions to pull it out of her. I got to try three different teas for $5. Not bad if you like the ones on offer that day. The “cheese” was actually a little scoop of cream cheese. Not what I was expecting. Still, a nice shop with a large selection of loose leaf teas. The “menu” was overwhelming to me, so I told the worker what I liked and she let me smell some of the ones I was interested in. I bought a small selection to try. The prices for the tea itself are a bit high, but still cheaper to make your own at home if you find one you like. Cute shop with gifts and tea accessories available as well.

Lonely selection of unique teas you wouldn’t find anywhere else in the city, like the Gyokuro Green Tea or Gaba Oolong I bought today. They wish have various sizes and samplers. Friendly service and a nice seasonal selection to keep things fresh.

My favorite local tea business! They carry my favorite tea ever (lavender shortbread) and many other delicious blends. The staff has been helpful and kind the times I’ve visited. They also have many tea-lovers gifts to browse and Louisville merch. I’ll keep coming back to support them for sure!

I bought a sampler (3 small bags of loose leaf tea for $15). I am trying seasonal flavors this time. I received a coupon in my email but I forgot to use it at the last minute! I also forgot to use my punch card. Oh well! I will be back again!
The staff is so knowledgeable about their products!

My husband found this gorgeous hidden jem while going to the jewelry shop next door. He knows how much I love tea and took me on a date here, i bought so much tea samples (7-8 sample bags), a larger bag of sakura tea (which i recommend) and a 2 large matcha lemonade to go! (Also highly highly recommended) I think we spent about $80 (this includes the tip we left), so this is definitely worth it considering how much we got. This is my new favorite spot, and I look forward to stopping by every week after my day at work! The tea samples we had and the ones I took home smelled and tasted amazing!!! The nice lady in the store was so sweet it’s nice that they put out the tea leaves that correspond to the tea bags and give you samples before you buy. I can’t wait to become a regular here
