I use to work in Wicker Park, and my near daily walks to this David’s Tea location are likely what sparked a passion for trying and drinking teas. It’s a great company and I was always impressed by the variety of the tea, as well as the brewing accessories available. This store in particular is wonderful. I got to know the staff well and, even though I no longer work nearby, I will still go out of my way to visit this location so I can replenish my tea cupboard.

I’ve become a big fan of this Canadian tea company. They definitely are a modern twist on loose leaf tea. They come up with some amazing herb combinations that can make tea taste like anything from cotton candy to root beer. They also have many fantastic pure and organic teas. I like the milk oolong. The gold rush tea with mulberries in it is a favorite also. They are now making sparkling ice tea, which is another fun take on tea. The staff at the various locations I have been to always are friendly and want to have you smell all kinds of stuff.
