About Us
About Lurline and Allan Wagner
 Our strong passion for tea encouraged us to open a tearoom.
Lurline presently works at the university hospital in the
Microbiology Department. And, on an occasional day off from
work, she looked for a tearoom to spend some relaxing time,
shortly after arriving in the United States from Alberta,
Canada. She could not find one in the Richmond area. She
found herself thinking about her Chinese grandfather,
growing up as a young girl in Manila, Philippines, sipping
tea with him from a Chinese teacup. The family moved to
Canada where there is still a strong British influence.
Naturally having tea is considered a part of one’s life.
Allan is a graduate of the Virginia Commonwealth University
and attended the Virginia Military Institute. He soon
stopped drinking coffee shortly after he met Lurline and
only drinks tea for his hot beverage of choice.
We have researched tea extensively, so that we have high quality tea at reasonable prices. We carry tea accessories and tea books. Lurline graduated from the University of Richmond Culinary Arts Program and is certified from the Specialty Tea Institute.
