A terrific place to pick up your favorite tea or to shop for gifts for tea lovers.
TEA BAR • TERRIFIC LOOSE LEAF TEAS AND TEA ACCESSORIES
Stocking more than 100 different kinds of teas including green tea, black tea, white tea and herbal teas, Tea Bar is heaven for the tea connoisseur in Amsterdam. Fill a small bag with loose teas from their many bins, and you can even create your own custom mixes.
Tea Bar was opened in 2008 by two friends and tea lovers who felt the lack of options for loose teas in Amsterdam. Loose teas allow for fun custom mixing and the absence of tea bags are better for both you and the environment.
Teas range in price but are typically around €3.50 per 100g, although the fancy teas like white jasmine pearls can cost more than €10 for 100g. Tea Bar stocks all kinds of accessories for making teas, including many different tea strainers. I bought an adorable metal robot strainer meaning to give it as a gift to my brother, but alas it did not make it to the recipient. Too cute to part with!
Tea Bar also has a nice online shop and distributes their teas to many cafes and restaurants around Amsterdam. Perhaps you have tried their teas at DE BIERTUIN, GUSTAFSON or CAFE BRECHT?
