Our Products
Our Teas
Though ‘Coffee Shop’ is in our name, we make sure that the teas we serve never play second fiddle. In fact, we offer a variety of carefully selected loose leaf teas, always served piping hot. In all we have seven different flavours:
Chamomile – A delicious tea made from whole chamomile blossoms. Rich and deep in flavour, it is both calming and sooth.
Shanghai Lichee Jasmine – During the processing of this tea, jasmine flowers are layered between the drying green tea leaves. This adds a floral fragrance to the unique taste of the lichee fruit, also found in this blend.
Green Rooibos Lemon – A fresh burst of lemon enhances the lively character of the rooibos. The uplifting lemon scent pleases more than just taste buds – a truly sensational tea.
Canadian Breakfast – A bright and coppery tea that is perfect for anytime of day. It is a strong cuppa with body and a full flavour. Great served with milk.
Pear Cream – A sweet, almost candy-like tea which brews pink. Hints of creamy caramel and fresh pear makes this herbal bled terrific. Fantastic served iced.
Moroccan Mint – A historic tea, which blends English taste with Moroccan culture. The English love of black tea, combined with the tradition of mint tea from Morocco, makes for a strong tea with a cool accent of peppermint.
Chai Masala – The word “chai” literally means tea. Chai as we have come to know it, is a fragrant blend of black tea, cardamom, cloves, coriander, cumin, curry leaves, lemon grass and rampe leaves. A complex and exotic tea, which also make a great latte.
