Crema's Take
“No Longer Human is a tea bar obsessed with Japanese varieties, offering slow-drip sencha and premium bancha that you won't find at typical coffee shops—this is the rare place where the staff actually knows their tea the way serious roasters know their beans.

What to expect
Known for their pour-over program, matcha and tea options too, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings.

This place is incredible. An amazing tea bar and tea shop, I don’t think I’ve experience anything like this in the states. I had the nitro sencha and slow drip and both were great.
