Tea shops · Edmonton, CanadaDAVIDsTEA West Edmonton Mall
The DAVIDsTEA store inside West Edmonton Mall, with the chain's catalogue in 50 g pouches and sachet boxes at its online prices, open until 9pm.
A mall tea store earns its place with the clock: at 8pm on a Thursday, when both of Edmonton's independents have closed, this one has an hour to go.
DAVIDsTEA West Edmonton Mall is at 8882 170 Street NW, Unit 2356, inside the mall, and keeps mall hours: Monday to Saturday from 10am to 9pm and Sunday from 11am to 6pm, with a direct phone line listed in the chain's store locator. It is the chain's only Edmonton store today; the company, which opened its first shop in Toronto in 2008, counts more than twenty stores across Canada and sells its teas through thousands of grocery and shop-in-shop locations as well.
The catalogue is the one sold on davidstea.com, at the same prices: loose leaf in prepacked 50 g pouches, larger 250 g bags as separate products, sachet boxes and printed tins, with a discount when you mix and match five 50 g pouches. The entry shelf is CA$ 9.98 the 50 g for Genmaicha, Organic Earl Grey, Organic Calming Chamomile and Organic South African Rooibos; Organic Irish Breakfast costs CA$ 10.98, Organic Silk Dragon Jasmine CA$ 11.98, Organic Japanese Sencha CA$ 12.98, Guangzhou Milk Oolong CA$ 17.28, Organic Gyokuro Yamashiro CA$ 28.48 and the Organic Matcha Matsu CA$ 39.
Online orders over CA$ 75 ship free and the rest pay a flat CA$ 8.99, with points on every product through the chain's rewards scheme. What the store does well is the flavoured and organic side of the chain, and the hours: both of Edmonton's independent tea shops close by 6pm and one of them rests on Sunday and Monday. For single-estate blacks and Chinese oolongs those two are the better addresses; for an Earl Grey or a matcha on a weekday evening, this is the counter that is still open.

What to buy here
Earl Grey
Organic Earl Grey Tea
from CA$ 9.98 · 50 g
The organic Earl Grey in a 50 g pouch: the chain's plainest black and the one that shows the base tea rather than the flavouring.
See our page on this tea →Genmaicha
Genmaicha Tea
from CA$ 9.98 · 50 g
Genmaicha, green tea with toasted rice, at the lowest price on the shelf and the easiest Japanese green to brew well without a thermometer.
See our page on this tea →Matcha
Organic Matcha Matsu

The one worth the trip
Organic Gyokuro Yamashiro Tea
from CA$ 28.48 · 50 g
An organic Gyokuro, the shaded Japanese green, in a 50 g pouch: the one tea on this shelf that neither of the city's independents sells, and a reason to cross the mall.
