Sun closed Mon closed Tue 11:00am – 5:00pm Wed 11:00am – 5:00pm Thu 11:00am – 5:00pm Fri 11:00am – 5:00pm Sat 10:00am – 5:00pm

SensibiliTeas is a retail tea shop with over 500 teas. Within the collection are over 350 organic teas, many of which are fair-trade and/or biodynamic. Tea preparation tools of all kinds. Feel free to ask any question about tea at any time. We feel it to be our responsibility to ''fit you to a tea''.

Loose leaf tea can be as easy as bag tea, and is certainly far better tasting. Stop in and see what it's like to 'Get loose and think outside the bag'.

      I've been buying loose-leaf tea and tea paraphernalia at Sensibiliteas since it opened, and I have never been disappointed with the tea or with the service. Donna is a font of information about all of her amazing varieties of tea, and her staff is extremely well-trained. They're willing to mix varieties if you request it (I'm particularly fond of mixing lime-ginger rooibus, lemon myrtle, and tulsi; wonderful hot or cold with a slice of lime). Its location in the eclectic Shirt Factory is a definite plus!

      The best tea shop I have ever been to, in all of my travels! I always try to track down tea in the places I live/visit but I still keep coming back to Sensibiliteas. While the store could definitely benefit from a better website, I have never had any trouble with online ordering, and love visiting in person as well. Always friendly and a huge selection, even the part time staff have amassed quite an extensive knowledge of tea to recommend or create a custom blend. Great prices as well. Love love love!!!!!

      I've been buying my tea from Donna from the day she opened Sensibiliteas. I love shopping there the quality and variety of teas she offers (though I have to admit, after all these years, I have settled in I'm my favorites:

      Earl Grey Bravo

      Lady Myrtle Grey

      Victorian Earl Grey

      Lilac

      Constant Compliment

      Vanilla Chai Rooibus

      I drink them hot and also make a half-gallon of iced tea from them nearly ever day, year round!

      Donna and her staff are a dream to shop with: friendly and knowledgeable! If you're in a hurry, call ahead and your order will be ready for you to pick up when you arrive!

      I love this tea shop!! The staff are friendly and knowledgable. They know exactly where their teas come from, what makes them special, and how to match my nebulous desire to try something new to the new, perfect cup of tea. They will do custom blends, or hook you up with one of hundreds of delicious & cleverly named brews. Lots of fun bits and bobs are also available in-store. They are slightly pricier than similar items on amazon, but the difference is far less than average shipping & my dollars stay in the community. They support several local charities with in-store tips and work really hard to give back to the community. A serious committment to the local community and the health & welfare of staff & customers set this local business apart from other shops you might use.

      One of the things that made me sadded about moving away from Glens Falls was leaving this gem, but not to fear: personalized service with zippy & reasonable shipping make Sensibiliteas accessible even though I'm 3 hours away. I have induced several friends far and wide to try Sensibiliteas & folks from PA to Chicago are now regular customers. Don't miss Earl Grey Bravo, Waves of Joy, Afternoons With Aunt Fay & Strawberry Fields.

      Sensibiliteas is a very quaint tea shop tucked into an artists den! It's location is a renovated factory building housing many studios and even a sandwich shop.

      I have gone there for many years and have valued the owners intense knowledge about the vast variety of organic teas she sells. She has given me sage advice (pun intended!) on what teas work best for what health issues I my be dealing with. I have been able to improve my health and well being through her delicious teas.

I am always greeted by a smile and if I am unsure what I want , they know the right teas to fit my physical and mental needs. The teas always brew into delicious hot or iced tea and are enjoyed by all who taste them. The soups that are offered on Saturdays have been scrumptious as well! Wonderful job Kayla and Donna!

      I've been shopping at Sensibiliteas (both in person and online) for almost 8 years. I've always been astounded by the huge selection of teas available. The staff are always knowledgeable and friendly in a quiet way. The prices are reasonable, unlike at some boutique tea shops I've visited elsewhere. The owner prefers to offer teas that haven't been artificially decaffeinated, and instead teaches her customers how to decaf their tea themselves. This is knowledge I still use almost every day. Although I live 40 minutes away from this shop, I prefer it to the one only 10 minutes away - for its selection and more personal service.

      I've visited many tearooms over the years.Finding out-of-the-way one is my passion.Sensibilitea is a terrible example.Please don't waste your time.Very hard to reach on the phone & when you do,you'll be met by an unfriendly owner whose tepid, I-could-care-less-about-you attitude spills over into the corners of her shop.

      Very unfriendly, unwelcoming, rude.I don't know why they would choose to keep her listed here, there is no tearoom to speak of, They sell loose teas.You'd be much better off buying your tea from an online store than taking all the time to find her,only to be met with no welcome at all.One of the worst this tealover's ever seen.

      Excellent teashop. Possibly the largest variety of tea in one shop in the country if not also the world. One on one service is beyond compare, never rushed, always informative and helpful, emphasis is on enjoyment of tea by the customer; not how much tea can be sold to the customer. This same service is also provided over the phone/internet so you don't have to be there in person to have a great experience.

      Entering Sensibiliteas is always a wonder. I usually know what I want; but Donnalynn never fails to introduce me to another tea, which opens another world for me. My fiancée Richard never drank tea until I had him try one of Sensibiliteas own blends. Now, he looks forward to what I may bring home from the Tea Lady (as he refers to Donnalynn).

I have been buying tea from Donnalynn for about two years now. I recently moved to Queens and only buy her teas when I come home to visit. She has the best service and knowledge of teas! Her variety is unmatched upstate. She can offer suggestions for homeopathic remedies to special blends for your palette. She is patient and offers high service unmatched these days. Her tea and accessories are purchased and sold with care and thought about the overall health and wellness of her customers. Even if you are a coffee lover, as am I, don't be surprised if you become addicted to SensibiliTeas as well!

      I suppose if one must be ruined it is best to be ruined by the best. At times I travel and have no choice but to buy tea elsewhere--never am I satisfied, never am I content. There is no comparison to all of that joy that I know provided by Sensibiliteas. With just one step across the threshold, all of my wants and needs for tea do lay to rest. When out and about oh so far from this home, at times I know not what to do, my tea cup all alone. Oh so many think: 'I know, why don't I open a teashop? How hard is that?' Tis harder than they think, but they care not. They care not for the tea, they care not for you, they care not for me. We these customers we must object, we must never settle for anything but the best. A time will come when where ever we stand upon this Earth so grand in a moments notice we can be drop-shipped tea from the greatest teashop in all the land, but until that time does come when I am far far from this teashop I call home, cold my soul wrapped in hotel sheets, dreaming of nothing but Sensibliteas.

      Never seen so much tea in one place in my life! And the owner knows all of them! Customer service is beyond compare. When I called to inquire about hours she said they close at 5pm, but she'd be happy to wait for me to get there. Can't think of any other shop of any kind that would offer that!

      While the selection can seem overwhelming, they walk you through a series of questions that leads you to the perfect tea for you. Much cooler than being pushed to the most expensive offerings.

      My first visit to SensibiliTeas was very enjoyable, and educational. I loved all the different teapots they sell. The staff was very friendly, and very knowledgable about teas. Every question I had was answered instantly, and in depth. The woman who helped us, demonstrated for us one of the tea flowers blossoming in water. It was an amazing sight. I only described the type of tea I like, and she knew exactly what kind I should pick to sample. She prepared it very well. It was so smooth. We were welcome to stay as long as we like, and just browse all the teas and accessories for sale. I will visit again, and bring more friends. I loved it.

      Where do I start?! 'SensibiliTeas' is such a fun experience. I've been a customer for about 2 yrs. now and must say Donnalynn really knows her stuff. She has taught me a lot about tea and has steadily offered a fine, delicous variety of every kind of tea imaginable. If you are a loyal tea drinker, this is definitely a place worth going to. In addition to the great tea selection, Donnalynn also carries accessories to compliment your cup. You just can't go wrong in this cozy and comforting little shoppe located right in the heart of historic Glens Falls! Happy sipping!

      A trip to Sensibiliteas is always informative, fun and relaxing. The old factory building that it's located only adds to the charm. Donnalynn's shop is bright and cheery and very calming. Her expansive knowledge of teas and quick wit always makes a trip there fun, relaxing and very educational. It's easy to find the shop in the midst of all the others at the Shirt Factory - just follow your nose to find where the wonderful aromas are coming from! Donnalynn always takes the time to make her customers feel welcome and at home; she's ready to brew you a cuppa at a moment's notice. If you aren't sure what you feel like having, she'll ask a few questions and help you to decide on a brew.

      SensibiliTeas is a treasure trove! My daughter and I went in for a gift and came out with not only that but several additions for ourselves. Donna Lynn was knowledgeable and adept at guiding our choices. (The gift recipient was very pleased.) Considering she had had a very late night/early morning inventory stint, she was also quite gracious with my novice questions and a string of questions from an 11 year old! We found friendly, personal service and there so many kinds of teas. We will be back for sure!

      I have always been a coffee drinker and then only one or two cups in the morning. I heard of Sensibiliteas from a co-worker and with the holiday season and gifts to buy for my better half, had to go see what it was all about. What a great place! Donna Lynn is very personable and a true tea expert. It was her expertise and ability to invest a novice (me) with the tea culture and lingo that made it a truly enriching experience. My wife loved the Christmas gifts and we are now regulars. I look forward to the evenings so that we can brew up a new blend and unwind together. The hardest part is deciding what type and flavor of tea to choose, but this also makes it easy to return to the store as there are so many teas available. I highly recommend Sensibiliteas to anyone who feels that they deserve a little reward at the end of each day.

I usually buy several bags of tea when I'm there and it's such a comforting feel to go home loaded with so many varieties of tea. She even has 2 varieties of apricot (which I've always found very hard to find). I always feel rich when I leave the shop even though I've bought only a very small sample of what is available. In fact, it's amazing the variety of teas she has available. This is a tea lovers dream.

      My parents actually found SensibiliTeas and brought me there the first time. I was hooked!

      The overall atmosphere of Donnalynn's store is very calming. There is a Wall of Tea ... canisters full of tea! There are also samples available and, when I was there, some ice tea and cookies available.

      Her shop is not fussy, which is my complaint with a lot of tearooms and shops specializing in tea. It's easy to browse, or just have a seat and talk to Donnalynn about her tea or the ingredients or the many tea accessories.

      Since I live out of town, I order most of my tea from SensibiliTeas online. When I go up to visit my parents, I try and stop by.

      It's a great place to shop for yourself or for gifts!

      Having spent several years in England, I know what a good cup of tea should be, and had despaired of ever finding 'a good cuppa' again. But I have been saved! Thanks to Donna's expertise and patience, I have found the black tea that I would go to the ends of the earth for! (Hunnan Gold in case you're wondering). SensibiliTeas carries such a wonderful variety and Donna's knowledge of all of them is a wonder. She takes the time to ask questions and makes selections based on your personal preferences. I've even been introduced to some new teas that I wouldn't have tried otherwise. And, whenever I go on a trip somewhere, I make sure to visit Donna first so I can put together a great 'hostess' package, complete with the Ingenuiteas filter cup, and a wonderful sampling of both black and green teas. I can't say enough positive about this lovely shop - it's worth the trip!!

      SensibiliTeas stocks over 300 (I think it may be above 400 now) different kinds of tea - loose whole leaf tea and herbal infusions (rooibos, etc.). It's a casual, friendly atmosphere - a clean, bright shop in a refurbished old shirt factory. You can purchase a cup of tea or a bag of loose tea as well as all the accessories necessary to make your tea at home in all kinds of neat ways. The owner and operator Donnalynn is extremely knowledgeable and willing to educate on each unique tea.
