Old Barrel Tea Company
680 Main Ave B, Durango, CO
Crema's Take
“Nestled in historic Durango, this charming mercantile is a tea lover's sanctuary with an impressive selection of loose-leaf varieties sourced from local purveyors, where the knowledgeable staff encourages exploration through generous daily tastings. Beyond tea, they curate an thoughtful collection of local honeys, biscotti, and wellness items that make this as much a discovery experience as it is a place to linger with family and friends. The genuine warmth of the team—who'll help you find your next favorite blend whether it's a matcha creation or an Apple Crisp—turns a simple tea stop into the kind of place locals and visitors alike return to again and again.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Family friendly.
