1. Why not just Google it?

2. If a "specialty tea shop" has no idea what an "orange pekoe" is, not only
its not a "specialty" tea shop, but not a tea shop at all. Its like a car
shop that has no idea what a "sedan" is.
One cannot spend more than 10 minutes on reading about black tea without
learning about orange pekoe, fannings, tippery, flowery and other basic
black tea terminology.
