Verdant Tea opens new venue to refocus on tea
Verdant Tea, a specialty tea retailer, decided to concentrate efforts on its core business of sourcing small farm teas by opening a new tea house and brewery in Minneapolis and getting rid of a restaurant. The new space will also house Verdant's online retail operations and serve as a brewing and bottling facility for its ready-to-drink beverages, including kombucha and sodas. In an effort to refocus the business on tea, the owners plan to sell the existing location, which has a full food menu and a liquor license, by December 1.
