Lake Missoula Tea Company
136 E Broadway, Missoula, MT
Crema's Take
“This Missoula institution approaches tea with the reverence and precision of specialty coffee culture, offering carefully sourced leaves and traditional Gong Fu brewing methods that go far deeper than typical tea shops. Beyond their exceptional matcha and rotating selection of premium teas, what keeps people coming back is the welcoming atmosphere and genuinely knowledgeable staff who are happy to let you taste before committing to a purchase. It's become a beloved gathering spot where tea enthusiasts stock up on quality blends and newcomers discover that tea can be just as nuanced and rewarding as any craft beverage.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.

Amazing variety great prices and they'll brew top shelf teas you may be reluctant to buy before trying for a dollar more. Great selection for Missoula. Friendly knowledgeable staff and beautiful tea sets and accessories
