Random Tea Room

this brisk, full-bodied classic hails from the mountains of sri lanka – formerly ceylon, hence the name of all tea grown there. our house ceylon is on a rotating basis, meaning that we frequently offer different teas from different tea estates and regions, seeking quality and diversity of flavor – but it will always have that characteristic “brisk” flavour for which ceylon teas have come to be prized. ask your tea tender about the source of our current selection. this brew can be enjoyed with or without the addition of milk or sugar

the full-bodied, malty quality of assam is often the backbone of popular european blends such as english breakfast. our tippy reserve is a hearty brew, yet exhibits a mellow, woodsy character with a long, crisp finish. another tea we keep on a rotating basis, feel free to ask your tea tender about the origin of our current assam. this brew can be enjoyed with or without the addition of milk or sugar

an exotic, aromatic brew composed of harmutty estate assam blended with green cardamom seed, cinnamon, clove, star anise, black pepper and fresh ginger. (this house blend is similar to the mixture used as the basis of flavor for our chai masala.)

also known as red bush tea, rooibos (pronounced “roy-bus”) is a mineral-rich and highly antioxidant herbal beverage from south africa. naturally caffeine-free, its flavor is somewhat similar to black tea, though very low in tannins so it doesn’t turn bitter if steeped for too long. rooibos is characteristically mild and aromatic with a slightly citric sweetness and is excellent hot or iced. this herbal tisane can also stand up to milk or sugar

honeybush is another “bush tea” from south africa and is naturally caffeine-free with a sweet honey-like flavor. also a nice source of calcium, our version is flavored with genuine bourbon vanilla. richly aromatic, honeybush is a delight at any time of day, and can be enjoyed with or without milk or sugar

a fruity delight, the red berry fruit melange is composed of blueberries, black currants, elder berries, grapes and hibiscus. packed full of vitamins and an excellent choice for kids and grown-ups alike

a smooth, slightly smoky, full-bodied tea made from the broad-leafed tea varietal "dayeh" from yunnan province. many of the leaves are gold-tipped, which results in a more complex flavor and a deep amber liquor. exceedingly drinkable, this tea can stand up to milk and/or sugar, but we recommend first trying it alone

from anhui province, the keemun mao feng is milder yet more complex than most keemuns, with an elegantly bold and wiry leaf style. this awakening brew reminds us of barley on the nose, next offering a touch of spice, perhaps nutmeg, followed by a gently smoky finish. satisfying and smooth, this tea is best savored on its own

this delectable brew comes from fujian province, a region also revered for its green, white & oolong teas. surprisingly sweet, mellow, complex and smooth, with a tantalizing chocolate aroma
