Village at Topanga is welcoming DAVIDsTEA, (6260 Topanga Canyon Blvd., Canoga Park, CA, 91367) a fun and contemporary tea shop and they fit right into the modern, upscale mall. Already a popular spot in Canada, and with two shops in Manhattan, this tea is far from traditional.
They offer over 150 loose leaf teas in signature tea blends made with exotic, non-traditional ingredients like mulberry leaves, fruit, nuts, hot chilies, dragon fruit and caramel pieces and come with names like Jumpy Monkey, Forever Nuts, Yogi Berry and The Spice is Right. For you more traditional tea drinkers, don’t worry…DAVIDsTEA also carries a wide selection of premium traditional teas as well.
They also have gifts, tea samplers, tea-making accessories, and even a tea starter kit (which was sent to me). With limited edition seasonal collections and a brand new tea introduced every month, DAVIDsTEA keeps the experience fresh and exciting. I absolutely love The Nordic Mug, a sleek tea-mug fitted with a fine, stainless steel infuser and lid…it makes loose leaf tea so easy to drink!
In my tea sampler, I received a bunch of different tea flavors, like Buddha’s blend, organic Japanese sencha, organic cinnamon rooibos chai, organic cream of earl grey, coffee pu’erh, the buzz, and the organic skinny. My personal favorite is the forever nuts because I had never had a tea that literally has pieces of fruit and nuts in it. It’s absolutely yummy. Plus, being the graphic designer that I am, I really appreciate the design of everything. It’s cute, informative, and makes it easy to understand exactly how to brew your tea. Let’s just say, in terms of tea, David got it right
