It's an elixir of Earl Grey for your D&D party before an incredible adventure, or a big pot of green tea to fuel your group of bird enthusiasts in Wingspan.  Perhaps you're a wandering Planeswalker, looking for a quiet cup of chamomile tea before your next great duel.

In starting Many Worlds Tavern, we realized that tabletop gaming sessions with family and friends were some of the most important moments in our lives.  We respect the humble game night as a place for fun, relaxation, in-person connection, healthy competition, and limitless imagination.  We wanted to bring our love of coffee and tea into our passion of gaming because we believe that these special moments deserved—in our opinion—the most special drinks of all.  Sharing a big pot of coffee or tea evokes that same sense of belonging that great gaming does, and we'd love to be your source for that.

The tabletop's a big place nowadays, so we always want to remember this idea—in everything we do.  One simple step we can take is commit to our Giving Back program.  It's simple: $1 of every bag gets donated to gaming-related nonprofits like The Spiel Foundation, The House of Afros, Capes & Curls, Tabletop Alliance, and Tabletop Gaymers.  When you click "Add to Cart" above, you can even select the partner you want your dollar to go to.

Nope!  For coffee, a simple coffee maker will usually do the trick.  For the best coffee, make sure your coffee maker gets the water really hot (ideally, just off the boil) and that it contacts all of the grounds in your bed of coffee. We offer pre-ground and whole bean coffee—if you don't have a grinder, no problem!  In time, if you would like to invest in a grinder for a fresher coffee experience, we have one for sale here.

If you're a super coffee nerd (like most of us are), we love talking about manual coffee brewing in our Discord.  However, brewing with a fancy setup is definitely not required.

All of our teas are loose leaf, so you will likely want a way to strain your tea after brewing.  This can be as simple as pouring through a small strainer you have in your kitchen, using your own tea bags, or utilizing something from our range of teawares here.

It's important to use the right temperature for tea brewing.  You can use a simple kitchen thermometer.  If you're interested in a temperature-controlled kettle, check out our favorite one here.

Great question!

If you're not familiar with Fairtrade, here's a description from their site:

"Fairtrade changes lives by changing trade. We transfer wealth back to farmers and workers in developing countries who deserve a decent income and decent work."

MWT Coffees do not have the “Fairtrade” designation, but we believe strongly in the values of their organization. Their impact is significant with coffee farmers that trade on the global coffee commodity market. Most specialty coffee roasters like Many Worlds buy their coffee from importers that bypass this commodity market, allowing farmers to get more competitive offers and often set their own prices for the beans they sell. The specialty coffee importers we work with are able to give us greater transparency on the coffees we buy to ensure we’re paying and sourcing ethically, and currently the minimum price we pay for any coffee per pound is over double the Fairtrade standard price.

Store in a cool, dark, dry place (like a cupboard or pantry) for the best experience.  Avoid storing in the fridge, as taking coffee and tea in and out of the refrigerator can cause some unwanted condensation.

Yes, to all of the above!

We offer free shipping to US customers on orders over $50.  Your shipping rate will automatically calculate at checkout.

Yes, we love sending MWT internationally!  Unfortunately, we can't yet offer free shipping to our international fans.

No, unfortunately all the teas have been already blended. If you have a severe allergy, please note that all of the teas are packaged in the same facility, so a small amount of cross contamination should be considered.
