Teavana’s newest Tea Bar has opened in Beverly Hills. One of only 4 such Tea Bar locations in the United States so far, the Beverly Hills location is right at the corner of Wilshire and Santa Monica Blvds, perfectly placed for maximum exposure.
Teavana’s Tea Bars have barista stations like their counterpart Starbucks (actually their corporate parent company), complete with food service, but their menu is more tea-centric. It’s beautifully presented and everything I sampled is quite delicious.
They’ve also got merchandise they’re selling, like all kinds of teapots and iced tea brewers as well.
And of course there is their signature massive Tea Wall, with dozens of loose-leaf teas to choose from, and each time you ask to sample one, the wafting can begin.
There is more than just hot and iced tea to drink at the Tea Bar. Aside from the Oprah Chai tea that debuted earlier this year, Teavana offers tea lattes, as well as sparkling tea beverages and tea infusions, like the Matcha Avocado smoothie I tasted and the Sparkling Kona Breeze. And when the weather gets chilly, I’ll be planning to have the Coco Caramel Sea Salt Latte all the time.
