Prima Tea, Wheeling

Prima Tea proffers myriad teas, ranging from black, green, and oolong to matcha, herbal, and fruit-infused selections. Large-leaf pu-erh teas arrive in cake or loose-leaf form, and flowering tea balls and pre-assembled tea bags bloom into flavorful concoctions. Ornately sculpted, colorful teapots and mug sets tap into the art of Eastern cultures as they feature faunal designs such as owls and monkeys.

Tea of the Month memberships connect drinkers with a different hand-blended tea every month, as well as complimentary, leaf-themed gifts perfect for paying back loans from giving trees. The Prima Tea staff advertises the potential health benefits specific to each of its teas, including the reduction of high blood pressure, cholesterol, and risk of heart disease.
