This is a Tea shoppe full of atmosphere and a huge menu of teas and sweets. The four of us enjoyed various tastings as we waited for our dinner reservation at a restaurant near by. This is a great part of town and we just happened to pass by this lovely busy place so we decided it was a perfect place to sit a bit. I tried Tisane Herbal Pot called Love Me. 9 Euros. and I loved it so much I bought ten bags of it to bring home. Now I sip on the tea and remember the whole trip to Florence.

This a great tea shop that I found by chance wandering in Florence streets. And it really was an happy encounter: I found here a great replacement for my «Mariage Frères» tea in Paris. The shop is just as elegant(some would say a bit snobbish, but this is a tea shop so…) and offers a great amount of choice of teas from all around the world presented in very beautiful boxes. The lady that I met this day was very helpful and nice and she helped me choose very efficiently. The prices vary from 4 € for a standard Chinese tea to 9 € for 100g of tea. La via del té has three shops total in Florence and in the other two you can seat and have a cup of tea on the spot. The via della Condotta one is only a shop. You can also buy here, besides tea, all sorts of tea pots(some very beautiful!!) and tea instruments. In brief: I highly recommend for people looking for goo quality tea!
