Welcome 2024 – 15th year – OPEN! again

After much thought and discussion, we figured out how to make more room and open up our space for you again!

This is also your reminder about our YEAR15 coupon that resets first day of every month all this year. 10 coupons available per month. Use it at online checkout; or tell us “Happy Anniversary” when shopping In store.

We are so Grateful for your continued patronage and support that has kept us growing for 15 YEARS!! [10 years in Maplewood]


And, now that we’ve figured That out, we are able to participate in Maplewood’s Sweet Tooth Tour again! Get your tickets HERE

Shop update – Hours update – Reminders

Even with the 15% off coupon (or because of?) our December sales are down from what they were the past two years – Is it because people have less to spend overall and are prioritizing differently? or because they are shopping at Amazon? Is it something else that we are not offering that you need?

.****Many of you have come in and expressed “We are so glad you are still here.” – We HEAR You, and are Very grateful for you. Hopefully we can weather these changes and continue to be here for many many more seasons! Please keep Sharing Good Tea and spreading the word to your friends, family, and associates about our Tiny Tea Shop with Lots to share. ***

Comings and Goings page has been updated after Saturday’s sales. While a lot of teas are slowly going out of stock as we move toward end of year, there is Still a Lot to choose from. Also – you can pre-order sizes 4oz or more for 2024 fulfillment (you get 10% off if you pre-pay for 8oz or more)….. if for a gift, we can print a gift receipt and give you a Traveling Tea note card to put in a gift basket or stocking. We also offer Gift Certificates (both old-school paper and e-cards that you can purchase online ANY time)

Reminder – as of 12/20 there are still TWO unused YEAR15 coupons available for December

Thanks for Sharing Good Tea – From Kateri, Lori, and Jessica …. and welcome our brand new employee: PJ who is learning everything there is to know about packaging tea!

Tiniest Tea Shop!

This phrase just occurred to me when I was taking photos to update our Google listing. A kind shopper posted photos of our pre-Covid layout, back when you could really walk around in the shop.

I realized that is misleading to new folks and just uploaded some new inside shots yesterday.

Here they are too:

View from just inside the door
To the right of door, upon entry
To Go Drinks available

We may be St Louis’ Tiniest Tea Shop, but Kateri works hard to curate the Best selection of teas.

Somewhere between 100-125 teas available at any given time. We purchase in relatively small quantities to keep our stock the freshest available to us for you.

Offering luxury and hand-crafted teas in small sizes to make them affordable for everyone.

2024 Goal – to find more Farm-Direct teas, helping tea farmers and tea workers to live above the poverty level; and find you some spectacular teas along the way.


In case you did not already know:

  • you can bring your own cup to get $1 off To-Go drinks.
  • we will fill your containers at a lower per ounce price; or you can get teas in brown paper bags and fill your own containers at home [note: if you order online and get 8oz or more, select the cheapest available price and tell us in the notes to pack in paper bags].
  • Tea tins and jars are available for purchase as well
Come see our Tiniest Christmas Tree – taking up the bare minimum of extra space!
