London--Anything New?
I’ve just moved to London and, though I know there’ve been past threads about the tea scene here, am wondering if there’s anyplace new and noteworthy I should be checking out. I know about Postcard, Yumchaa, Mariage Frères, the Twinings shop, Fortnum & Mason, but if anyone has tips on anywhere new or just off the beaten track post away!
Chinalife in Camden Town has gong fu tea facilities and a wide choice of teas. In Harrods there are few stands of loose leaf teas of different brands. Around the corner from Chinatown, near the Chinese bookshop, there is a shop that sells teas and teaware. In Spitalfields market there is a shop that also sells teas and teaware.
Those are the mortar and brick shops I know of but most of my teas are bought online either in China, UK or Japan.
Our tea shop is based in the UK – London! :) lthough it is online, we only sell to UK based clients so please check it out whilst you’re here!
We also do 20% off on all repeat orders.
Plus all of our profits now go to charity, so please support. We’ll also be going to Nepal to help re-build shelters for people! :)
Here is our shop: https://www.eastcottandburgess.co.uk/online-tea-store
Check out my 1st youtube video if you’re interested, as I explain the idea of tea in the UK and why there is so little genuinely good quality tea here despite the huge tea drinking culture! :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jl30JNvUZDc
