I walked by Subtle Tea Subtle Tea today and of course, I wanted to check it out. It's a well lit space that fits one large communal table, a window seat, and a few side seats; all of it was full. Luckily there was no line, so I didn't feel bad taking my time at the counter. In terms of baked goods and treats, nothing looked enticing. The selection was rather bare. The focus is teas, where the list was so long, I needed direction. I asked the girl for a recommendation because I wanted to try something interesting, yet I'm not a fan of fancy fruity teas or minty teas (for hot tea). She described the Almond Cookies Green Tea because it is their most popular. I was hesitant but agreed and she started brewing a cup, offering to replace it if I did not like it. On my initial taste, I wasn't sure if I liked it, but after a few more sips, it grew on me. The Sencha green tea, grated coconuts, and almonds, were perfectly balanced, creating something exotic, not startling, and ultimately enjoyable. The prices were right so I'll be back. I only wish they were closer to me.
