When I entered I was overcome by a horribly strong odor of what seems to be a combination of bad incense & herb burning for many years. The store suffered from the 4Ds.....dark, dingy, dusty & dirty. In fact any merchandise that isn't sealed should be considered used as it is all tainted with a layer of residue from the burning of items. In so far as pressured sales, yes they do suffer from that also even to the extent of as you're heading toward the door. The couple of items I had a somewhat interest in the shopkeeper could not demonstrate or explain them correctly. Personally I couldn't get out of there quick enough to get fresh air in my body. To add to the dismal experience I had to maneuver myself around beer cans in the parking lot.

Waited at the back counter while one staff member was filling some spice jars and never acknowledged by her. It wasn't until another staff member came over that she asked if she could help us. We got the Strawberry Trifecta iced brewed. She never asked if we wanted any sweeteners so we just got it how it came. It had a nice light refreshing taste but did need some sweetener to help bring out the flavor. I think I'll get a bag of it next time I'm in store.
