I don’t know very much about tea, but I know there are several tea houses in Phoenix and several coffee shops that also try to serve tea. As such, I thought it would be important to feature this video which helps to explain the variations in tea and shows several examples of quality tea from Upton.

David I prefer tea to coffee, but most coffee houses, here and elsewhere, don’t handle tea very well. A few show promise: Copper Star uses top-quality Harney tea sachets, and Lux actually brews loose tea for some herbal blends. The best place for a quick pot of tea without a drawn out frou-frou tea service is a new place that just opened in Tempe Marketplace. It’s called Tea Infusion, and it offers about 80 teas, all of which can be served hot or iced. It’s a great shop in an otherwise tacky shopping center. 0 Reply December 11, 2007
