This is a backlog from yesterday…….
I had a tea to go of this with honey from Harney & Son’s in Soho. Yes, that is absolutely correct. This bumpkin from Ohio just happened to be at a trade show in NJ where we were done in the early afternoon. My boss asked if there was anywhere I wanted to go in NYC, and the first thing that came to mind was Harney’s. It was such a great treat to get to go….I sampled Pomegranate Oolong, and had a sample of Golden Snail iced. I picked up some Midsummer’s Peach loose leaf by the ounce, and a few ounces of English Breakfast to try at home. The store is beautiful and yet simple. The staff was extremely helpful. After shopping at Harney, we had dinner in Little Italy, and then went to Veniero’s for dessert. My boss bought me another tin of Keemun Mao Feng as a gift. It was a total squee day for a diehard Harney fan.
For those that wonder about their pricing per ounce, from what I saw, they sell by the ounce based upon the online price per pound (pound price/16 = ounce price). I do know the Millerton store will ship amounts of 2 ounces or more out to US for $4.75 up to $25, $5.50 for up to $50, and $6.50 for up to $125… and ships for free at $125. This sounds like a great option to me, if you need refills for your tins……

That IS a great treat! I never thought to have Keemun Mao Feng with honey! How did you like it?
If I could handle the calories, I would drink it like that always….. ;) YUM!
Awesome, I love the Harney Soho store! Glad you got the chance to visit it while you were in town!
One day, if I ever go to New York City, I am so going to the H&S store. *is envious *
I was there the day after you! Made a lunchtime run down there on the subway to get a little tin of Golden Snail. It was hard to restrain myself from buying a lot more! The shop is lovely, especially in the middle of a weekday when it’s not too crowded.
