tried contacting the people i know in the area directly, but got no responses...
there used to be an international foods market on the East side of Zelzah between Devonshire and San Fernando Mission Blvd. in Granada Hills (Granada Hills HS area).
we bought a particularly tasty flavor of Russian tea there, and our efforts at finding a local (or Internet) supplier have been less-than-successful because the package label is all in Cyrillic... and despite frugal rationing, we're just about out...
if there's someone in the North Hills / Granada Hills area who'd be willing to stop in and buy us a pound or so, and ship it, we can (reasonably) compensate you for your time.
somebody get back to me, and i'll post a scan of the label.
Post the scan. There are a few Russian readers on the board, and I'm not far from that area.
Zelzah between Devonshire and Chatsworth is pretty much all residential except for commercial at the corner of Chatsworth. That's where I get my hair cut. So if it's there, I never noticed but give out some more info and I'll look into it. From Chatsworth to San Fernando Mission is mostly residential also, so there's not too many places the store could be if it's on Zelzah.
i recall it being right about here...

There are some pretty impressive tea shops in NYC, and in the outer boroughs. Im sure it can e found here in NYC
sounds like your looking for something off the beaten path though, that may be only available at smaller ethnic specialty shops, that may not have a web presence
There is an area near Coney Island called "Little Odessa"
Isnt cyrillic writing used in Turkey also? could it be a type of Turkish Tea?
That's right where my barber is and I need to get a cut next week. Give me as much info on the tea and I'll stop by. Is it a market or restaurant? Either way I'll find it. Do they have waterpipes to toke on while you shop?

Rich, if you want to view a very good health food store (online buying too) check out my friends at www.naturemart.com
You may want to email them on the tea, I've been in their store (we're neighbors) and there's a wide variety of teas avail. The russian one ...not sure. They also bring a lot of health items in from finland www.tundratrading.com
good luck
