Visit Our Store for the Finest Tea and Tea Accessories Tea Information: West of London is the stately Windsor Castle - a home of the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom. The castle is situated on a hill overlooking the countryside and dominating the skyline of the City of Windsor. When the Queen (or King) is resident at the castle, the royal standard is flown from the masthead of the main tower. In 1993 there was a disastrous fire at Windsor Castle, destroying generations of royal collections, paintings and significant parts of the historic monument. The queen undertook repairs and restoration of the castle and in 1997, Queen Elizabeth celebrated her 50th wedding anniversary here with a state dinner; giving the world it’s first view of the restoration. To commemorate this gala evening a special tea was served. The tea had to exhibit the following characteristics: · Unique and somewhat rare · Stout and resilient as the monarchy · Golden color to signify the nature of the monarchy · Flavorful to enchant the guests · Historical to commemorate Windsor Castle · A new blend to acknowledge the rebuilding and restoration of Windsor Castle This blend meets all these requirements: · The Darjeeling is a 2nd flush, and only available during 2 weeks in June. · The Assam is a full bodied and full flavored tea with a delicious maltiness. · The Kenya gives a golden coppery character and the Assam adds debt of color. · The mix of the flavors offers one of the most enchanting flavors available · All the teas are grown in the Historic region of the British Empire · This blend was put together to commemorate this occasion. Brewing Information: Hot tea brewing method: Bring freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil. Place 1 teaspoon of tea for each cup into the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep for 3-7 minutes according to taste (the longer the steeping time the stronger the tea). Add milk and sugar to taste. Iced tea brewing method: (to make 1 liter/quart): Place 5 teaspoons of tea into a teapot or heat resistant pitcher. Pour 1 1/4 cups of freshly boiled water over the tea. Steep for 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with cold water. Pour the tea into your serving pitcher straining the leaves. Add ice and top-up the pitcher with cold water. Garnish and sweeten to taste. Please note that this tea may tend to go cloudy or ‘milky’ when poured over ice; a perfectly normal characteristic of some high quality black teas and nothing to worry about!
