In a coffee-obsessed city, finding anywhere that serves more than five types of tea is exciting. This little Carlton cafe quietly showcases more than three times that number, spanning white to amber tea, selected carefully from renowned regions such as Yunnan and Kagoshima. Herbal tisanes are blended in-house, and beautiful servingware makes each sip an act of self-care.

Good to know: Assembly is equally serious about coffee, offering both tea and coffee subscriptions.
