tea time snobbery

I can't help but rave about these two companies:

1. For coffee: Counter Culture . They specialize in single-origin beans, seasonal farmhouse blends, and sweet Tuscany Espresso beans. There's also a subscription option where you receive two surprise bags a month from different coffees around the world. That's about as good as it gets: getting fresh coffee beans in the mailbox!

2. For tea: Harney&Sons. Historical, detailed, whimsical descriptions of tea origins. Beautiful tea boxes with delicate satchels. I just went to their Soho store today and fell in love with how creative and well thought-out their tea blends are. For your inner Victorian or Zen Master.
