The Tea Centre

One star is for a quick delivery and one for nice tea. I have ordered number 1 and number 2 gift packs and was really disappointed with packaging. The person who designed them is paid for nothing good. Tins coming apart very easily and half of teas end up on a floor. Lids and every part of tins should have locks or screw system that keeps it all together. Another thing - teas not labelled so a person who gets a present doesn't have any idea what tea is drinking. Why to keep it in secret? I think its better to promote it. I feel like I will put a sticky tape to make tins hold together and will write what tea is it.

Wide selection of teas and friendly helpful staff.

25-Jul-217, 4pm. I think it was located right near the Castlereagh St entrance to the centre. The lady there was very nice, friendly and patient with someone not fully initiated in the ways of tea like myself. They have a very wide variety. Most of it is sold loose. They have large boxes where they keep most of tea, and from these they take some to prepare your chosen tea packages. You are allowed to take a whiff of any tea you want before you decide. I bought 4 tea types (see photo). I really recommend the Australian Sencha and the Australian Daintree. The blackcurrant and Stockholm blend teas are alright but am a bit concerned about the 'flavour' mentioned in the ingredients. They place custom labells on your tea bags (see photo). These indicate tea name, ingredients and other info. I'm not sure why for some they indicate a brewing temperature but not for others.

There were sooooo many options to choose from (which could be a bit intimidating when i first came) but the watresses there really know their teas well and their recommendation for tea/dessert combo is excellent! And the place is cozy too!

I'm glad I found this place! Tea is not flavoured or with added sugars like T2 tea and staff has a true passion and knowledge for tea

The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable, the quality and variety of the tea is excellent, and the prices are very reasonable! Would definitely recommend this store!!

The Earl Grey "special" Blue Flower and French Earl Grey are to die for!! Please don't ever change your blend, it's actually become better than chocolate for me, a very special delight in which I share dearly with my family :)

Excellent quality tea. I can't believe I spent a lifetime drinking tea out of teabags. Once I started drinking organic tea from this place, I have never looked back!
