A Deep Respect for the Leaf
Pure Tea was born from a conviction that the ritual of tea deserves more than a hurried cup between meetings. We began as a small gathering of tea lovers in Chicago, sharing pots and stories in each other's homes — and grew from there into a dedicated space where the craft of tea is honored.
Our teas are selected by hand from estates that practice sustainable agriculture and fair trade. Every variety — from the smoky depth of a Lapsang Souchong to the delicate floral notes of a Silver Needle — arrives in its original condition, unblended and unprocessed, so you can taste the terroir in every sip.
Our in-house kitchen bakes pastries and sweets daily, using traditional techniques and the finest ingredients. We believe a great tea is always better accompanied by something made with care.
