Spice and Tea exchange....you are awesome. I fell in love with the pretty array of spices and beautiful sanding sugars and all the lovely teas. I was warmly greeted by a new employee, she nervously said hello and did her little greeting. It was nice and very friendly upon walking in. I'm a foodie, so this was a great place to shop for spices.
I could have bought everything in sight, but I'm a big fan of Penzey's spices so this was just the extravagant version at a shop. I loved the spice blends, but they were a wee bit costly for my tastes. I did pick a couple teas - Green Tropical Tea, Cranberry Apple Tea, and Mango Green tea. These teas had instantly caught my attention and I was already picturing the "zen" of it all.
The Green tropical tea smelled heavenly, and I'm an avid tea drinker...when I'm not drinking coffee. These were refreshing to smell, and very unique. I was kinda bummed that the tea sampler bags that were already prepared had 2 out of the 3 selections that I had wanted. I really wanted these three...so I had to buy all teas separate at $4.89 for each bag. The employee was new and had almost made a custom sampler for me before she realized she wasn't allowed to prepare a sampler for me. Oh well...
I also got espresso sugar - which I plan on using for topping my espresso drinks, and the raspberry sugar for some sweet cupcakes. Overall, I enjoyed shopping at this location and would hopefully buy some more items via online since there are no locations in California.
