I have a major weakness for tea canisters. When in Montreal last week I crossed a Kusmi tea shop on St Denis street. The labels are all colorful and ornate, totally reflecting that Russian aesthetic (the company originates from St Petersburg). I ended up getting their Earl Grey with citrus and I must admit it's great tea. Luckily, their also available in New York.

On another day I stopped at the Atwater market and picked up some Darjeeling by Lov Organic. The tins look so neat all stacked up in the store. Unfortunately the tea itself is not the best. But at least I'm left with a nice canister.
