Holsome Teas is my go-to spot for loose tea! The owner is kind and very helpful. Note for hours: the shop is open every day after 1pm and closes at 5:30pm. The google hours are incorrect!

Tried this hole in the wall spot for the first time today and was pleasantly surprised! Not only is there an incredible variety of teas but the owner was a delight to buy from. He even offered kiwi berries from his own garden and they were fantastic. Great service and great tea. Highly recommend!

Holsome Teas is a hidden gem in Princeton NJ providing high quality tea and friendly customer service for more than 25+ years. This tea shop is located in an alley near the Princeton Record Exchange store. There is a wide selection of organic green, black, and fruit teas, so it is easy to find something special here. Today, I purchased the peach passion fruit tea that smells so fragrant and delicious. The tea price ranges from $8 - $13 for a 0.25 lb bag. I can't wait to serve it over ice. Please note that summer hours are from 1pm - 5pm, so you may want to call ahead if you are traveling.

My absolute favorite place to buy tea. Wide selection of herbal teas such as fruit blends and single ingredients such as loose rose, ginger, peppermint, etc. The selection for green tea, oolong, and black tea is also just as vast with varying prices based on the grade of the tea. All the prices are incredibly fair and based on 1/4 lb to full pound. Most teas will be priced on average at $8 per 1/4 lb, as opposed to most places I have seen which will charge that price per oz. The teas I have purchased are all excellent quality with wonderful aroma and flavor and as long as it's stored correctly, they do not lose it easily. I still have peppermint I purchased over a year ago that has the same strength to it now I store my teas in a shut pantry out of sunlight in mason jars and this has held them up great. You can purchase a 16-20oz tea for about $2.50 and he loads the tea bags up so that the teas flavor can really come through In conclusion, should I move further away one day. I would still make the drive. Paul is a generous and knowledgeable man with a love for tea and a desire to share that with others. The store is found down an alleyway on Witherspoon which can make it hard

Absolute best teas i’ve tasted and i’ve been going on quite the hunt for them for our tea party business let me tell ya! Drove from PA to come here and was not disappointed. We bought a variety and each one was packed with flavor. The owner is such a gentle man, thank you we will be returning.
