Because I'm from Missoula, Montana, I thought it only appropriate to make the first post about my favorite place from home. Butterfly Herbs in downtown Missoula is a charming, artistic, old-world shop that will win your heart instantly. Whenever I visit my family, the first place I go to wind down and enjoy a moment of quiet to myself is Butterfly Herbs. I recommend meandering through the vast shelves of herbs, spices, chocolate, and tea until you reach the quaint cafe in the back. There, you can order a pot of locally made tea (my favorites are Earl Grey, Rose Mint, and Evening in Missoula) and sip yourself into relaxation while reading a book, appreciating the local artwork displayed in the cafe, or watching the quirky locals. Butterfly Herbs is amazing anytime of the year, but in winter it's the most cozy.
Other things that should not be missed: dark chocolate covered pistachios, Mexican cocoa candles, wide array of coffee, ginger chews, and the card and gift wrap section.
Even if you cannot make the trek to Missoula for this wonderful experience, you can visit the store's website. Lucky for you, despite the old-world nature of the store, they ship. www.butterflyherbs.com
