Yes, we have a similar alcove called "The Tea Spot," but with the
exception of a 12 foot section at the back, it's not tins. Most of it
is bagged tea. There are only 30 or so tins of loose tea. They did
have some Adagio teas last weekend when we were there, but only a few.

I really do miss the tea shop in Minneapolis. I'll add it to the list
of reasons why moving to the DC area was a bad idea.
