Today it was a cold, windy day and I was feeling a bit a down, so I went in search for some tea (too much caffeine, lately).
I saw on Google Maps a spot called Tealosophy and I believe it is now a chain of stores. Anyway, it being 5 blocks from my place was enough to make a stop there during my errands today.
I believe the location on Gorriti 4856 (Palermo), where I went, is the original shop and it has a green garden where you can have the tea on the spot. In a small solarium/room there is the tea store, with tins of tea blends.
My purchase was the Indian Market blend and I wasn't disappointed. Provided that I am no tea fan and probably lack of the skills to prepare a proper tea, I remembered the British forum members complaining for the lack of decent tea.
Well, I think I have found it. It is just bloody expensive, which is fine to me as I have maybe two cups a month.
