Yaupon Teahouse + Apothecary 349 Abercorn Street, Savannah, GA 31401

"Yaupon is a holly bush that has a sacred place in the history of native Americans and is native to the Southeast. Its leaves are rich in caffeine, which is what Yaupon tea is all about. It has an earthy and somewhat fruity flavor, and yaupon teahouse has a variety of teas for brewing. My girlfriend has loved their canned drinks, found in local grocery stores and can't wait to get more. The Yaupon space feels like the tea tastes, very soothing and pleasing. Stop by this gem of a spot and sample some yaupon tea, it's super refreshing in this summer heat."

"Virgina and Lou were very knowledgeable and hospitable! This is more that tea it is a history lesson of local food and medicine native to our area."

"We first tried Yaupon Tea when they were at a Makers Market, and after learning more about their story we were so eager to visit their shop. Their space perfectly matches their products in our opinion. Balanced, tranquil yet fresh and inviting. When we shopped in their store we left with two of their loose leaf teas that we haven’t had before & had a great chat with the shopkeepers. We highly recommend stopping in next time you are in Savannah if you love tea, brands that believe in regenerative agriculture & products that tell a unique story."

"This is my second time purchasing Yaupon Tea from them. I live in Cleveland, Ohio and read an article about Yaupon. I initially found them on Amazon, but followed a good tip to go directly to their website. At first i got regular and mint, and was hooked. This is my second order, sticking with my mint and regular favorite but now adding Ginger and elderberry & hibiscus. I love them all. The Asi is the perfect companion to all the variety. You don't need Sugar! It is just perfectly sweet. I love them so much I shared them with a fellow tea lover at my job. Yaupon Teahouse does a wonderful job at packaging and delivery of their tea. The tea is competitively priced as it would be at your local supermarket, you are supporting the Native American College Fund, and reviving a sustainable, North American-native plant. If i could open a franchise in Cleveland I would. Drinking it makes you want to spread the word. 10/10"
