About Camellia Sinensis
Camellia Sinensis is a Montréal tea house that opened on Emery Street in 1998. Its team selects teas directly in gardens across Asia, bringing back green, black, oolong and other teas.
It suits tea lovers, curious beginners and anyone who wants a calm place to sit with a pot of tea in the Quartier latin. Ask for help choosing a tea and learn how to steep it, then take some home. A tin of tea makes an elegant gift, and a warm pot is a good answer to a cold Montreal afternoon. It is a small tea house rooted on the island of Montreal.
