Our Story

Where Louisiana warmth meets tea ceremony

Alice Tea Spot began as a small counter inside a neighborhood market on Washburn Street. Founder John Jacob wanted a place where the pace slows down, where leaves are measured by hand, and where every cup is poured with intention. Today we are a full tea house, a roastery for our house blends, and an online shop serving customers across the United States.

We work directly with growers in Japan, China, India, Taiwan and Kenya. Everything we serve is cupped, scored and blended in-house before it reaches your table. No shortcuts, no artificial flavoring, no rushed service.

01

Direct Trade

Long-term relationships with family farms and co-ops.

02

Hand Blended

Every house blend is measured, cupped and sealed by hand.

03

Quiet Space

A calm room designed for reading, work and conversation.

Our Process

From leaf to cup, in four steps

01

Source

We visit farms and co-ops, cup hundreds of lots, and select only what scores above our bar.

02

Blend

Small batches, measured by hand. Recipes are tested for weeks before they reach the menu.

03

Brew

Water temperature, leaf weight and steep time are dialed in for every tea we serve.

04

Serve

At the counter, at your table, or shipped to your door anywhere in the United States.
