Elaine’s Tea Shoppe

Many of you know of Elaine’s Tea Shoppe in Sylvania, Ohio.  Many don’t.  If you are ever in the Toledo area, this is a wonderful stop.  We were there today and it is still a wonderful stop, well worth the detour.  She has a great selection of loose leaf tea, tea accessories and knowledge.  We had a light lunch – a cream tea, actually.  The scones were wonderful.  Her menu is a sight to behold, not just the selections, but the information in the mini-manual is quite valuable.  For those serious about tea tasting, she has developed a Tea Taster’s Journal that contains a primer and a wonderful tasting form that can be completed for each tea tasted.  With this book you can jog your memory and develop your own listing of great teas.  Thanks, Elaine.  It was worth the drive.
