Tea - ATTICUS Coffee, Books & Teahouse

We Specialize in Loose Leaf Tea!
We have a large selection of teas to choose from that can be brewed on the spot to-go or sit and enjoy a pot of tea to stay. Anytime, hot or iced.

All tea comes from essentially the same plant, the Camellia Sinensis. The differences between the types of tea result from variations in the processing of the leaves after they are harvested.

Black Tea ~

Unlike high levels of caffeine found in coffee, the low amounts in black tea promotes blood flow in the brain without overstimulating the heart while sharpening mental focus and concentration.
Some of our favorite Black tea blends:
Goblet of fire- A cinnamon spice black tea.
The Grey Ghost- Our house twist on a classic earl grey.

Rooibos Tea ~

Pronounced "roy-boss" and means "red bush" in Afrikaans. Rooibos is totally pure, natural and 100% caffeine-free. Comparable to green tea in the amounts of polyphenols it contains and shows anti-mutagenic, anti-carcinogenic, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral activity. Excellent for strong bones and teeth.
