Great place to get tea. Wide selection. May seem pricey, however, when u compare the actual amount…read moreyou are getting for the price by weight and the quality of the tea it is reasonable. Everyone in the store is always so nice and accommodating, I have had some lovely chats with the staff. My favorite tea in the Prickly Pear Black Tea. Tastes wonderful hot or iced. Not over flavored or artificial tasting like some flavored teas you may have tried elsewhere. A perfect blend. Try it you'll like it! A true Arizona gem. The only slight issue with the store is that it is in the heart of the touristy area of Old Town Scottsdale, so finding parking anywhere near the store can be a frustration at peak times. I wish they had a couple dedicated grab and go spots out front. P.S. Another thing I love about this place is you can pick out any of their teas and they will brew you a cup which you can get hot or iced to try before you buy.

The Spice & Tea Exchange can be a fun spot to stop in to browse or to get fun interesting gifts…read more However, many of the teas and spices have a rather strong artificial flavoring despite the ingredients claiming they're all natural. The store is a franchised chain and pricing is on the higher side for teas, spices, herbs, and seasonings. Service felt rather average. The interior is cute with merchandise organized in a logical manner. Personally, I would not return again as I have different tastes in what I'm looking for in teas and spices. However, it could be a decent spot for anyone who likes to try out unique blends.

I was strolling through Old Town Scottsdale and was looking for a spot for a refreshing drink, and…read morestumbled across Tea Time. This is such a cute spot, perfect for a meetup or tea party. The walls were filled with different tea selections, tea accessories, and art; it was a tea lover's dream! The staff there were patient as I looked through all their different tea varieties and offered suggestions as they recognized that their vast array of teas could be overwhelming to sift through. I ordered their iced Berry Rhubarb tea, and it was delicious. I even picked up a few packets of prepackaged tea from the sale rack to take home with me. Where this shop excels is in offering so many different options. I will say if you wish to take some loose-leaf tea home, the prices are on the higher side, so be prepared. They do have minimum requirements of how much you need to purchase, which ultimately made me get some off the sale rack vs. buying fresh tea of varieties I really wanted to take home. If I find myself in the area again, I would swing by again for a cold bevy.

Today is #ThankYouThursday and I couldn't think of a better local business that I want to support and show some gratitude to than Twisted Bee Farms! Now we all know the important and crucial part that bees play into the environment so that goes without saying. Twisted Bee Farms is one of Arizona's best places for local honey. They have over thirty flavors of honey, they carry bee products (like honeycomb and bee pollen), and they even have edible flowers. I had ran across their booth at the eighth-annual Arizona Margarita Mojito Craft Beer Food Truck Festival (Yes, that's really the festival name) and I'm a fan now. You can go on their site and find out where they'll be popping up next. They're really big in the farmer's market scene! If you're a foodie, Twisted Bee Farms is not a place to miss. I recently put together one of those Instagram/TikTok butter boards and used their Raspberry & Habanero honey on it and wow! Amazing! I also bought their Carolina Reaper and that stuff, "makes my tongue sweat."

Right around the corner from work…read more Needed Bee Pollen in the worst way. I had been out for 4 days and my local supplier was out. We found Twisted Bee Farms on Instagram and realized they had opened a brick and mortar about 6 weeks ago. Stopped by today and Yay!!! They had local bee pollen. And $10 cheaper for a similar size that we usually buy. So excited!!!! Can't wait to try their Honey and they are also going to have burritos, ( even vegan ones ) They also have smoothies and Açaí bowls. Can't wait to try it all!!!

Everything inside looks thoughtfully chosen, and a lot of it leans toward wellness and natural living. They carry a great mix of items--things like healthy snacks and drinks, small batch jams, local handcrafted goods, and even a pretty impressive wine selection with some unique finds. You can tell they put effort into sourcing good stuff, not just random shelf fillers. There's also a small seating area where you can grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy the music. The whole place feels relaxed and inviting, not rushed or overly trendy. If you're in the area or just someone who likes health-conscious shops with local flair, this place is worth stopping by. I'll definitely be back.

Been following this place on social media and finally had a day off to come in and check them out!…read moreParking is easy as they have a lot right next to them. Walked in and was greeted by a worker and the numerous cute merchandise they have. So so many items to look at from candles, cookbooks, baggus, wine, candles, etc. I perused the store which had natural lighting coming through and was pretty empty for a Thursday morning. So many options, I had to tell myself only to buy 2 items. So many great wine options with notes attached to them with tasting notes, what to drink with, which as someone who is still a novice to wine, appreciated that. The nice worker even offered me some help and helped me narrow down to 2 wines. Walked out with a wine and the cutest tumbler! The wine (C.S.G) tasted incredible and fruity, which was perfect! Such a great shopping experience, I will most definitely be back to purchase gifts for friends/family or even a pick me up for myself.
