Ah, the tea museum tea shop. I've been there, but never bought
anything.

I'd imagine it's of the heavier variety -- woody and dark?

BTH doesn't really do online sales... not really anyway. I'm not even
sure if they answer emails. Was it Rosa or Tiffany who was there when
you visited, or both? They are rather generous with tastings.
