I was very happy to discover a new tea store in Florence. Marcela does a fantastic job offering a wide selection of specialty teas. The store is really cute and cozy, it’s a perfect place to stop in and have tea, especially in these chilly winter days. I purchased two teas, the first one called«breathe» that has a strong minty taste, it’s fantastic to wake you up in the morning or if you are suffering from a cough. I also purchased«Cecilia’s mood» that has a strong chocolate-y flavor and is really good. I will be returning soon to stock up on more tea… Thank You Marcela !

Just stopped by today for a ‘tea tasting’ and I have to say, I was very impressed with the selection Marcela has as well as her store design. She made this tiny space into a really warm and colorful shop painted green and with all sorts of lovely explanations about the tea posted on pictures around the shop. We also notices some really cute random details like a stencil of a tea pot on a hidden corner of the shop, it was like«where’s waldo» for us. She also has a really cute magnetic board where she keeps a selection of teas so that customers can smell and decide what they like best. If you are looking for a really good chai or maybe a unique green tea or even a pungent ginger tea, this is the place for you! AND she even mentioned that you can get your tea-to-go so every American missing your hot cups-o-tea, you need to stop by here, grab a cup of tea and do some shopping on va romana, no really. She also sells some tea pots which have built in filters for loose leaf tea. By the way Marcela scores 10 extra points from me because she was dressed as a reindeer when I saw her, if a shop owner can get«down» and a little cheesy suring christmas, they get my vote. No cold, formal florentines are in this vicinity ;-).

Cute tea shop run with passion by Marcela. Good for rare tea shopping, afternnon relaxing stop and tasting, organize a party or a «tea experience» Delizioso piccolo shop di Tè a Firenze, di fronte a Boboli. Gestito con cura e passione dall’argentina Marcela organizza anche corsi e degustazioni. Ideale per comprare tè rari, fermarsi durante una passeggiata pomeridiana, organizzare un pomeriggio diverso.
