DAVIDsTEA is a Canadian specialty tea retailer founded in 2008 by David Segal and Herschel Segal in Montreal, Quebec. The company set out to reinvent the tea shopping experience with a modern, colorful approach that makes tea fun and accessible, particularly for younger consumers. DAVIDsTEA stores feature vibrant wall displays with dozens of loose leaf teas that customers can see and smell before purchasing.
The company offers over 150 types of loose leaf tea across categories including black, green, white, oolong, pu'erh, mate, rooibos, and herbal infusions, along with flavored and blended varieties featuring creative combinations like Birthday Cake, Organic Cream of Earl Grey, and Forever Nuts. DAVIDsTEA also sells a wide range of tea accessories including teapots, infusers, mugs, travel tumblers, and tea makers, many in exclusive designs.
After restructuring in 2020, DAVIDsTEA transitioned primarily to an online and wholesale model, closing most of its physical retail locations while maintaining a strong e-commerce presence and partnerships with grocery retailers across Canada and the United States. The company continues to release seasonal collections and limited-edition blends throughout the year, maintaining its reputation for creative and approachable tea experiences.
