Top 3 Online Tea Shops
Sorting out the best tea shops from the worst can be a time-consuming task. What are the reputable merchants from the non-reputable?
What we want are tea shops that provide quality loose leaf tea, prompt shipping, great pictures and description, and helpful customer reviews. So right now we'll have a look at the three best online tea stores that provide exactly that.
1) Adagio Teas
This is one of the most popular online tea stores. They have a considerable selection of loose leaf tea and herbal teas, provide many customer reviews for each, and offer fast shipping. All of their offered tea are fresh and have medium to light depth, meaning, there is no variety that will ever taste too strong, "overpowering", stale, or bitter. The loose teas here are well-balanced with a large percentage of them meeting a good standard.
Another great thing about Adagio Teas is that all of the teas are sold in sample sizes. This gives folks the option to select many teas to experience, and also helps them find their favorites before spending their money on larger sizes. For beginners, Adagio Teas is a perfect place to start their tea adventure.
2) Mighty Leaf Tea
Like Adagio, this online merchant carries a large selection of loose teas, and many different kinds of herbal tea. You can see the quality once the aroma and flavor greet your senses. The texture of the teas are great and remain fresh in air tight pouches.
The only thing Mighty Leaf Tea does not share in common with Adagio Teas is that they do not offer sample sizes of all their teas...just a select few.
There are a couple of varieties that are of exceptional quality, so folks are definitely getting their moneys worth. Mighty Leaf also provides customer reviews of most of the teas for additional help with choosing. Their shipping times are decent (I found Adagio was just a tad quicker) and overall I believe this merchant is highly recommended.
3) Olivus
Olivus.com only sells one type of product, olive leaf tea. This herbal tea, although rarely heard of has a fantastic aroma and flavor, as well as offering health benefits that through years of studies, research, and findings are much greater than any other traditional tea.
Fans of loose herbal teas should find olive leaf tea a rare but delightful treat!
It costs the same as any other loose tisane, and can provide years of drinking enjoyment either by itself or as blending with other varieties of tea. Consumed hot or cold, this olive beverage is sure to impress most tea drinkers!
Olivus manages their own olive tree orchards and produces olive leaf tea along with extracts, and supplements. These orchards are located in California, where both the Mission and Manzanillo olive tree species are cultivated for its leaves.
Once ordered, the customer receives an email confirmation and can expect their package in about 3 to 7 days depending on where they reside. The quality of olive leaf tea is superb and is worth number 3 on this list!
So, those are the 3 top tea merchants that are worth considering the next time you're in the mood for loose tea.
