Take your tastebuds on a trip around the world with special tea blends at Harney & Sons.

The family-owned company has a shop and tea experience in the Village of Millerton in Dutchess County.

It's where you can book a tasting to try a selection of more than 250 varieties of tea.

The company says the way they source their teas is part of what makes the experience so special. Family members in the business travel to far corners of the world to select leaves for the perfect blend.

You can enjoy a fresh cup and pair it with a bite at the cafe.

It also goes nicely with a new book! Oblong Books sits on the nationally recognized historic Main Street. You'll walk into a wide-ranging selection of genres and games.

Employee book recommendations can also help you find the right read for your ride home. The store offers a quiet place to browse, linger, and get lost in the pages of history, hobbies, and more on your "Road Trip: Close to Home."
