I am going to Denmark next May and plan to spend 5 days in the city and surrounding area. I do not drink coffee but love herbal tea. I've been reading online about tea shops and have come up with a list:
A.C. Perch's the Handel tea room
Osterland
Dronning Louises Tehus
Sing Tehus
Paper and Tea just to purchase, no seating.
Anyone been to these shops? Other suggestions?
Thanks.

Perch’s and Østerlandsk Tehus are the ones I know, and the most well known in Copenhagen, both with a long history. Perch's is the most famous of the two. Perch’s have a tearoom, which might be a nice experience for you, though I have not partaken in it (while I do prefer tea over coffee, I don’t take it that seriously).
The others don’t ring a bell for me. Will say that Dr. Louises Tehus looks nice based on what I can see, but it is also a bit out of the city in the northern suburbs (still easy enough to get to on the S-train).

Thank you so much for the information. I will visit both Perch's and Osterland and venture forth to Dronning.

Dronning Louises Tehus is a tea cafe (if that makes sense) rather than a tea shop. It is run by the tea shop called "chaya" (which is where I buy all my tea). I use the shop in Lyngby, but there are others. https://gb.chaya.dk/our-stores/

I loved the pastries at Leckerbaer - the teas were good too!
Ryesgade 118 in østerbro.
