My Cup of Tea, which I wrote about in Letter from the Editor last week, sells specialty loose teas online, from its showroom, and at the Woman’s Exchange and the Palladio.
And, just this spring, My Cup of Tea began selling at the Memphis Botanic Garden Farmers Market.
According to My Cup of Tea owner Mary Beth Bryce, offering samples of iced tea — Mango Tango Green and Black Currant, among them — has been key to selling at the market.
And while Bryce says there’s no clear favorite among the teas sold at the market, she has been getting feedback from a particular demographic. “I have some great male customers,” she says. “[At the market], men feel very comfortable.”
