Mint & Honey Tea and Gift Emporium

Nadine has a great selection of teas - both traditional and flavoured, plus some frozen foods in a cute little store.

I used to be an avid coffee drinker. However, Mint & Honey, and its very charming owner Nadine, have successfully introduced me to the multiple varieties and benefits of tea for over a year now. The store is also my one-stop-shop for all my komboucha, jams and gift needs throughout the year because it sources and promotes products by local producers and artisans (e.g. Fulton's farm, chocolatier Anna Stubbe). In sum, this store is a great little hidden gem in Kanata that is worth seeking out!

Online order for items I couldn't find anywhere else arrived when promised. Packaged with care. Highly recommended.

Excellent local business. The owner is very knowledgeable and passionate about her products and community. It's a great place to find high quality, reasonably priced tea, tea accessories and more. Will definitely be back!

What a magical, impeccably curated tea/gift shop! Mint & Honey is by far the best tea store I’ve ever been to (within Ottawa and beyond). This is my go-to spot for all of my tea and gifting needs. On top of the incredible tea selections, you can also find gourmet chocolates, jams, and other delicious treats which make perfect gifts (there are also beautiful gift baskets to choose from). Many of the products are locally sourced/Canadian-made, and all are Fair-Trade, which is amazing. Nadine, the owner, is a true tea expert and an absolutely wonderful person. From the moment you walk in, she makes you feel right at home and walks you through all the various tea types, allowing you to sit down and sample each selection. During our first visit, we were lucky enough to be treated to a sit-down tea tasting, where Nadine introduced us to some of the best teas we’d ever tried. She explained the making and origin of the teas and even paired the teas with special jams/crackers...It was so special! I can’t say enough good things about Mint & Honey. It isn’t just a beautiful tea shop, it’s got a heart and soul to it that is one-of-a-kind, and that’s thanks to Nadine! Can’t wait to be back again soon.
