Amidst the charming Arts and Craft bungalows of Nashville's 12 South neighborhood  a fairly new and unique tea bar is tucked under an unassuming canvas awning.

Firepot Chai is a quiet shop where one can find refreshment from a busy day and outstanding, unusual loose-leaf tea steeped to perfection by skilled staffers who love and cherish the beverage themselves.

On a particular Wednesday, when time was not of the essence, I wandered into this little gem and ordered their signature black tea, Firepot Breakfast, and was warmed inside and out.  This cheery, fragrant tea was the perfect morning cuppa and a single Energy Bite was the perfect compliment.  Served in an aesthetically elegant way, I did enjoy each drop and felt no rush to leave, but languished instead on an oversized, sun-drenched window seat for the better part of an hour reading, writing and talking off and on to Chelsea, the low-key, unpretentious tea champion.

If you've not been, plan to go.  I shall be back.
