Now, moving on to the star of the show – the tea. The folks at Coffee Tea Library have got the art of tea-drinking down to a T, with a large variety of green, black, red, and oolong teas from Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam, and China. The shop also sells matcha for those who are fond of the fragrant beverage.

Try the milky Oolong tea or the cold-brew Blueberry Blossom Tea for a refreshing citrusy flavour. Or, get the Iced Sakura tea to cool off from Singapore’s heat. The place also carries Lotus teas from Vietnam so those who’ve never tried them before can do so here. And as you’re sipping your drinks, the staff will share about the background and process of brewing each tea.

In case you were wondering, yes, you can buy the tea leaves and brew them at home too. Choose between the small 15g glass jars or 50g resealable packets – both are packaged nicely so you can buy them as gifts too. Prices range from $6.90-$25, with flavours that include Dong Ding Tea, Lychee Tea, and Jasmine Bloom tea. 

The store has categorised them according to country of origin and type of tea for easy reference; once you’ve made your pick, simply approach a staff member for assistance. While you can only purchase the teas at their physical store, Coffee Tea Library has plans to sell them online in the future.
