Anise Apothecary is an adorable little shop located in downtown Burlington. I have been following them on Twitter for a little while now and wanting to visit them every since. Finally, my schedule allowed me to make my way to Burlington and meet Monique (owner). I can't even tell you how excited I was to a. be in Burlington (love this city), b. meet Monique (so sweet, beautiful, and knowledgeable), and c. see the shop (cutest shop ever!). The front entrance immediately invited me in and the homey feel, plus everything else inside, made me never want to leave. They carry all sorts of brands like Graydon, Olie Biologique, One Love Organics, Zoe Organics, Rahua, Antipodes, PurelyGreat, Nyl, Sappho, On a Branch Soaps, and the list goes on and on. They also carry local raw honey, vitamins, chocolate, herbs, olive oil, tea, and much more. Considering the variety of products carried, it was really well organized and laid out.
I thought it would be fun to share some pictures from my "trip" to Anise Apothecary, enjoy :)

In love yet? No? You will be.. |

Look at all that tea!! Monique had some Rooibos Vanilla ready to sip on, it was delicious. |

Seriously, look at this place! If you're not in love yet, then something is wrong with you! |

Delicious, raw, local honey! Nom, nom, nom! |
I actually missed the stand that had Antipodes, Rahua, Organic Matter and some other stuff on it..damn..sorry guys. Anise Apothecary carries so many different local and worldwide brands, at so many different price points, that you're bound to find something for yourself and others. Whether you live in the area or not, it's a shop worth visiting. WARNING: You'll feel like a kid in a candy store and want to buy one of everything!
A special thank you to Monique for taking time out of her day to share information about the shop, products, and herself with both my boyfriend and I.

thanks ladies! Told ya you'd fall in love ;)
ReplyDeleteI researched this store when I was looking for retailers during my internship - instantly wanted to be there! How far is it from Toronto? Sabrina's going to be there over xmas, maybe if she has time to shop...haha
ReplyDeleteMayah x
Did you!? Come with Sabrina and check it out! Depending on where in Toronto, I'd say about 45 min to an hour. Maybe if she goes I can go with, would be so nice to meet her, shop, maybe hit up a vegan restaurant near the shop. Tell her to Google Kind Food and Kelly's in Burlington, both are vegan :) xo
