I've compiled a quick list here of reputable and generally well-regarded tea vendors. I can’t vouch for all of these personally but have done my best to research each thoroughly. The list is pretty brief at the moment but of course open to expansion. Feel free to leave a comment if you've had a positive experience with a vendor not on the list!

I created this magazine as a space for all tea lovers, as well as those new to the hobby, to discuss anything they wish about the drink, from growing to preparation to consumption. Whether you want to spread the word about a favorite vendor or grower of yours, post a picture of your tea stash, or just share what you're drinking today, all are welcome!

Thanks for stopping by, and I look forward to making this magazine the best it can be.
