My Cup Of Tea

A friend and I walked into this location after having lunch in Chinatown. I was happy to find that his cute store sold a variety of teas including green, oolong, white, black and blooming teas (mainly with a green tea base). Their teas are sold in loose and bagged — note that the loose is a much better deal. Also, they have various accessories like tea strainers and cups. I like that their loose teas are sold in cute paper cup containers and then boxed up. This made it easy to pack and take on my flight with me!
The staff were very helpful and even had samples of tea for us to taste. I love tea and although I tend to drink black tea in the mornings, I bought their Milky Oolong ($ 15) as it is calming and good for digestion. I have been having a cup of it after dinner and it is perfect! It is an oolong tea, but creamier and light in taste. I looked at the steeped tea and noticed most of it was whole leaves that were rolled up. The tea itself was of a high quality and the side of the box says leaves are hand picked. My Cup of Tea was a great find in Montréal. I would love to try some of their other teas next time! Out of curiousity, I even looked online and you can browse their tea here:

The staff here is super friendly, informative and proud of their product. Classy selection of teas.

I absolutely LOVE this company. I have been their customer from the very beginning, when they had their tiny shop on de la Gauchetière street. Delicious good quality tea, beautiful presentations and attentive staff.
This is also the only place that I have been able to find blooming tea that tastes different from each type (not all green tea).
It’s also my go-​to place for when I need my matcha kick for my smoothies and my cupcake baking.

Excellent service in a beautiful store. The owner spent quite a bit of time with me and even steeped a fresh cup of tea for me to try. This is the way a store should be run. I look forward to my next visit!

Beautiful store, attentive staff, great service, yummy teas.
Check out the blooming teas, and their daily loose tea combinations. Inspired.
I know it’s short, but what else is there to say?

Owners are amazingly nice, tea and décor were great. Definitely check it out.

I was first introduced to this shop while on a Fitz and Follwell walking tour, and I’ve been back several times to purchase more tea since. As others have mentioned, the tea is pricey, but isn’t so bad if you consider that each blooming tea can be used three times. So that two or three dollar blooming tea that makes a pot of tea? Divide that by three. Much more reasonable, especially for such tasty tea. If three pots of tea seems like too much, it can be refrigerated for later as ice tea.
As others have mentioned, the staff are friendly and helpful, and offer samples. What’s not to love about that?

Owner was most welcoming and spend a great deal of time educating me on his current tea selections. He even offered several samplings of brewed tea available. There is a strong commitment here to quality control and fair labor practices as he overseas each step of production in shipping tea from China. There is also a great selection of blossoming teas used for ceremonial and special occasions.

I love tea and this place gets it! They have tea pearls that unravel and blooming flower teas. It’s innovative because they have new flavors and nice packaging. I once bought a small heart made of tea for my sister and her boyfriend’s anniversary. This is a great place for gifts especially for people who like tea. Service is nice too, the shopkeepers seem to know what they’re talking about. They also sell clear glass teapots and give samples on the counter to try. The store also smells great! If you like tea, check this place out. Prices are slightly on the pricier side as well, but it’s worth it.

As I was wandering the streets of Chintown, Montréal, my cousin and I thought this place was a bubble tea venue. However, little did we know. as we step in, it turns out it’s actually what the title says «My cup of tea».
This place sells blooming tea, glass teapots, matcha. anything tea. you name it. As I wander about in the store, I actually develop hiccups; which gave the man the perfect opportunity to offer me tea! However, his approach was a friendly approach & not really a sales tactic *or was is. duh duh duhhhh~*
Anyways, he showed us cool zodiac teas & with each one they have a purpose, such as: «promotes digesting, improve blood circulation, enhance body metabolism». etc.
Not to mention, they also sell boxes of tea bags called «Therapy» which have cute little names like: «beauty potion, detox potion, refresh potion. etc»
Because of the kind salesman gesture, I purchase some zodiac teas, beauty potion & the detox potion. The detox potion was delicious & addictive, but I haven’t got the chance to get around to the other teas.
Ideally, from a cost savvy person. this might be pretty pricey for just tea. but the packaging is adorable & they make great gifts! This makes a great place for anyone who loves tea!

Agréable boutique couronnée de tablettes sur lesquelles est mis en valeur une extravagante sélection de thé. Oui, l’on y vient définitivement pour le thé, plus spécialement pour les fleurissants, que l’on peut admirer en pleine efflorescence dans des théières Zodiac Bloom! En référence directe aux 12 signes différents du zodiac, l’idée est la suivante: on nous propose 12 sortes de thés fleurissants aux caractères et bienfaits spécifiques, afin de combler les besoins de tout le monde. Parfait pour ceux qui cherchent la beauté florale à infuser (beau thé). Il suffit de mettre la boule dans l’eau bouillante et la merveille se dévoilera sous vos yeux.
Vous y trouvez également plusieurs rares variétés de thés en vrac (blanc, vert, noir, rouge, oolong, floraux aux herbes) de qualité supérieure. J’ai découvert deux sortes de thés verts que je né connaissais pas; le Pi Lo Chun (doux avec un goût d’herbe) et le Puits du Dragon (plus frappant et amer). Certains thés rouges sont aromatisés aux herbes et aux fleurs (litchis, chrysanthème, rose, etc.)
Les conseillers bien instruits, se feront une joie de vous expliquer l’attribut thérapeutique propre à chaque feuille, herbe et fleur.
Pour ma part, je me suis procuré la boîte My Tea Mix à 12 $: elle contient 10 sachets d’un mélange judicieusement choisi: Chrysanthème, thé vert, jujube, longan, fleur d’osmanthus, raisins secs et sucre en cristaux. Voici le concept: 5 sachets pour le matin, et 5 pour le soir. Ceux qui sont destinés à être pris le matin contiennent un autre ingrédient (le ginseng, pour stimuler). Idem pour ceux du soir (bourgeon de rose, pour relaxer).
J’ai nettement préféré le mélange du soir; il détend, et inutile de dire que c’est une découverte gustative vraiment indistincte, très difficile à décrire. Cependant, j’aurais dû enlever le sucre en cristaux… C’est pas mon fort de sucrer un aussi bon mélange naturel.

My Cup of Tea, ist ein kleiner Chinesischer Teeladen in Chinatown. Hier gibt es alle Sorten auf Tee, der Verkäufer ist sehr sehr nett und lässt auch gerne mal jemand seinen Tee probieren. Das besondere was verkauft wird ist einen Blume die man in kochendes Wasser tut, sich dann entfaltet und wunderschön aussieht. Man kann dreimal kochendes Wasser nachgießen (das ist so eine Teeblume also das heiße Wasser wird zu Tee :)
Danach kann man sie in kaltes Wasser stellen und sich 1 woche an dem Anblick erfreuen. Und das für 3 $
