When you walk into a DAVIDsTEA you know you are getting some of the greatest loose-leaf teas and ingredients from around the world. Known for their quality, unique flavors and custom teas, DAVIDsTEA is the “go to” spot. Flavors range from traditional straight teas to our exclusive blends and unique flavours. What makes DAVIDsTea unique is that their teas are not just tea leaves; they contain some of the best spices, fruits, nuts and herbs from every corner of the world.

The teas make great gifts as their own or in unique sets such as the “Starter Kit”, Matcha latte blends and Tea Martini kits. Starting at $24.50, the Starter Kit is the ultimate beginning set for the soon-to-be tea lover. The package contains delicious flavors such as Chocolate Rocket, North African Mint and Forever Nuts (my personal favorite). Created with dried apple bits, cinnamon and almond slices, the Forever Nuts blend is delicious and addictive. It makes the water turn a deep pink and is the ultimate craving companion.
What I love abou DAVIDsTEA is that they are equally passionate about teas as they are about giving back. They offer organic product, recyclable packaging and help the environment by using composting and other sustainable practices. You can purchase an environmentally friendly iconic cup for your travel tea needs.

Besides being environmentally friendly, DAVIDsTEA created their own blend to help support KANPE, an organization that seeks to put an end to the cycle of poverty by encouraging financial independence in Haiti. The tea is a celebration of Haiti’s culture, as it is both flavorful and has rich layers of taste. It is created with hibiscus, a common Haitian folk remedy; mango, Haiti’s most popular fruit; plus other distinctly Haitian flavours, including cinnamon, banana, papaya and coconut. It’s tart, sweet and delicately spiced. All profits go straight to KANPE. I absolutely love this tea. It is refreshing and fruity, but has a warm underlying hint of cinnamon. It makes a great gift, and you’re donating to a great cause!
Whether getting a gift, wedding favors, party favors, or buying for yourself, DAVIDsTEA is a great idea for something out of the ordinary. Check out one of their NYC locations, or view their online website.
