Coffee & Tea Suppliers
T2
As a tea lover, I am a big fan of T2 stores. There is an extensive range of standard and original tea available. Staff is always knowledgable and helpful. In store, a few pots of tea are usually brewing ... ready for customer sampling. Become a T2 society member to be informed of special discounts and free freights.
In the lead up to Christmas I can't help but think of tea related gifts. People seem to love them. If I want a tea related gift this is where i go. The store is particularly well laid out and the staff are excellent. It is part of the Westfield complex so there are also plenty of other great festive season shopping opportunities.
Great t2 store that is actually the only one in Sydney that is actually part of David jones. As a concession store, it meant I could use some of my David jones gift cards that I have collected in my wallet. The staff are incredibly helpful and friendly, even offering you some tea to sip on as you browse the store. I also happened to walk in during their 18th birthday sale which also gave me 18% off everything.
I went passed this store last week and I was quite surprised that the store has now been revamped and rebranded to T2B to sell ready to drink items, where you can pick from their extensive tea and tisanes range and order a hot, fresh brew right there on the spot. It makes it feel like you are in a laboratory, doing experiments and making fusion of flavours using ingredients of your choice, as well as milk and sugar.
Seeing that this is a new thing and that many people will not know how to do it, the staffs are incredibly helpful and assist in helping out customers on how to do it. It is certainly a great new experience which goes more than just pouring hot water and boiling a tea bag.
The shop area is actually quite small, and with dark store atmosphere, you would really need to be careful around those hot drinks!
