I am unable to share my experience in the store so this review does not cover the staff or merchandise. I was greeted at the door by a big sign stating masks are mandatory. One problem, there was no wider state mandate in place so I dont carry a mask while shopping. I have no problem with a business requiring them, but at least put masks out at your entrance so potential patrons may comply with your wishes. This is not how to make customers feel welcome and invite them into your store.
Super helpful and friendly owners! The tea is high quality, organic and super fairly priced compared to other local tea shops. I will be a frequent customer for sure :)
Note that this visit was a part of a Yelp sponsored experience!Welcome to the divine world of Tea. This place is not only a storefront but also acts as a small warehouse and distribution center for Linda, and her tea business. The box for the yelp event was well wrapped in a gift box containing 4 different tea flavors for us to try.Linda shared her challenges trying to do businesses around the world and the cultural barriers that she had to hurdle through for being a women. Linda has been in business for 25 years and not only does she have tea leaves from a variety of countries but also tea from different regions of a specific country. In addition, she carries other small accessories for your kitchen like bottle brush, sprout brush, merchandise to mention a few.The store moved to its current location in Clifton Park, NY, from its prior location in Schenectady NY. I've been living in Clifton Park for the last 23 years and just found out that there was this Tea place today on route 9 for the last 5 years, where I pass by on a weekly basis. My friend is an avid tea drinker and he never knew a place where to get quality tea from. Had I known this, he would have loved it.Thank you to Yelp community manager, Caitlin,who put this event together and familiarized me with the unique businesses in my area.Yelp experience has been really wonderful and has helped me explore food and businesses that I wouldn't have if I were not part of this elite squad. I can only educate people as I get educated myself. A big thank you to Yelp for bringing communities together.If you are a tea lover or use tea to brew you kombucha, dont forget to stop by and try something new in addition to supporting a women owned small business.
I was not allowed to exchange a tea that did not agree with me after 3 days. (Tea was too strong and I could not drink it)(On the website it clearly says, for tea and merchandise we allow returns within 30 days of purchase)I was even willing to pay the shipping cost going back. I was only looking for a tea I could fully enjoy, not a refund.Will never order again.
Cute little place! Huge variety of loose teas, and very kind staff. Will definitely be returning!
I love love love this store they are very helpful and knowledgeable about teas. I’m a picky tea drinker and quality/organic are very important to me. I only buy my teas from Divinitea.
Wonderful selections of tea. Steeping temp is on the bag for you as well. Have a monthly tea of the month club where I enjoy getting different tea types to try
Incredible organic loose leaf tea for home brewing. Happy to have found this gem on the opposite coast. Very quick shopping turnaround as well. Highly recommend!
What an amazing place to pick up some of your favorite teas! I purchased some great tea samples that I will be back in for to buy in bulk! So much available for all your tea needs. Plus, so many great gift ideas.
It's wonderfully organic. I love the large selection. I love the ability to try different teas each month by joining their tea clubs. I get educated every time I order something.
