@yaya I see your point, but it depends on customer mentality, not just on the store owner’s. Perhaps store budget too. I”m fairly sure consumer behavior varies considerably from country to country.
I guess this tea shop feels they are offering a “Dim Sum” of teas, and they would charge for that on the menu too.
Having said that Teavana here offers free tea tastings, as a result of which I haven’t bought their teas. They sweeten it, and thankfully I don’t have to pay to find that out.
