Description

Tea was introduced to the New England colonies later than many would expect. Over the ensuing couple of centuries, tea became a mainstay of breakfast in the Northeast, despite the negative publicity it attained after the Boston Tea Party. Teas favored along the Atlantic Coast tended to be hearty, full-bodied blends intended to fortify the soul in the face of the cold wet weather. The blends were typically created by Boston tea blenders with access to the many tea chests arriving in port from England, China, Ceylon and India…and so generations of New Englanders began their days. Excellent color, lively character with a piquant astringency. An oaky burgundy finish lingers very nicely.
