Acquired Taste Tea Company

Have you ever experienced being precisely where you're meant to be? That's the sensation we had while visiting this store. They offer top-quality products at extremely reasonable prices, and their customer service ensures you want to come back the moment you leave. Thank you for being exceptional.

Overpriced. A terrible name. Acquired taste is something that you must work to appreciate.like scotch or gourmet mustard.

How I just found this place is beyond me. By far the best in the city. Now my favorite place for anything tea.

Great selection, and helpful staff. They're always happy to give a sample bag of a tea if you want to try it before buying a larger bag

I always get great recommendations, which is easy when there is such a wide variety of tea available!

Cute little store with incredibly knowledgeable + friendly staff, delicious tea, and fair prices. Couldn't recommend this place enough!

I don’t normally do reviews but this place is the absolute best. Eddie was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Even during a busy rush hour he was amazing and gave me some recommendations to sample. Shop here if you want great tea, service, and overall environment.

Incredible! The staff, the service and the teas are all absolutely divine. I’ve been to Acquired Taste Tea Company a few times and have been blown away both times.

I used just “sort of” like tea and drank it because it wasn’t coffee in the afternoon. That was until I discovered Acquired Taste. The quality of the tea is second to none. Even just the smell of the tea leaves was enough to make me realize the top tier quality of the product. Once it’s steeped, it’s a delicious experience for both senses, taste and smell. I won’t buy tea anywhere else going forward.

Just started getting into tea. The lady there was a little hoity at first, but I soon realize, she knows her tea. So I got to give respect where respect is due, and like I said she was a master of knowledge about tea.

We got a gift basket from here, and it was a great experience buying. The owner worked with us to figure out tea flavours, and the gifts were cute. The price was very reasonable, and there were many many other options as well for any price point. The store smells amazing.

Every time I come in here I receive excellent service and leave with delicious tea. I have my favorites (winter dream sencha!) but always enjoy trying new-to-me suggestions from the employees. An amazing gem in the neighborhood.

Absolutely wonderful to talk with and helped with every question I had! Wonderful little shop.

Incredible tea blends with intricate balances of flavours, no sweeteners even needed! Wonderful service even through the pressures of covid. Hands down my new favorite tea shop! Always something new to try, and never fails to lift my senses and my mood! Will be by for a visit in the coming months
