Best Tea Service

Seven Cups

So far from home, missing their families and stuck with unfamiliar cuisine, alien invaders have a challenging life. Perhaps we can slow them down with a soothing brew in Seven Cups’ warm, calming, aromatic and delicate atmosphere. The charming service is expert. If asked, staff can knowledgeably discuss dozens of teas and their provenance. Aliens stuck with Tucson duty might be enchanted by tales of the exotic tea-growing provinces in China, and the story of each farm from which Seven Cups buys teas directly. Such is the power of tea at Seven Cups: It offers precious moments of peace in the midst of chaos.
