London-based
Newby Teas, specialist in first and second flush tea - the first shoots from
the prime season of each tea harvest – is to offer a range of eight of their
finest whole leaf teas, fruit and herbal tisanes through Waitrose stores
nationwide.
Available
from end of October, each pack of 15 individual, biodegradable silken pyramids,
sealed in triple-layer alu-foil for freshness, carries specific brewing
instructions, a short history of the tea or tisane and is represented by a
raised image of an object from Newby's Chitra Collection of antique teaware.
These include
a gold-mounted bloodstone teapot from Germany c.1750, on the English Breakfast
packaging, to the exquisite Faberge silver-enamelled tea caddy, Russia c.1910
decorating the Jasmine Princess, a fragranced green tea.
