8 Tea-rrific Places Where You Can Sip On Good Tea
1. Norm
Who would’ve thought that this simple yet minimalistic cafe that is known to many as a popular Instagrammable spot would be in our list? Besides serving really good coffee, they do take pride in their tea too! Slow and proper preparation is practised to ensure the right temperature to bring out the true taste and aroma of the tea. Coming from an anonymous source that is reliable, do give their Lapsang Souchong Black Tea a try! The flavour of the tea is outstandingly unique, as the leaves impart a distinctive flavour of smoky pine. Sipping on a cup of tea in such a nice place is to-die-for!
