Proper Tea Is Not Theft
Did you see the lovely bit about Rare Tea by Lucas Hollweg in the Sunday Times Style Magazine this weekend?
Henrietta Lovell’s Rare Tea Co sells some of the world’s most delicious teas. So delicious, in fact, that her jasmine silver tips have permanently changed my tea-drinking habits. The good news is you can now buy her teas in selected Waitrose (call 0800 188884 for branches). They cost more than your average char, but you not only get wonderful flavours (and rather a pretty tin), but several brews from each lot of leaves. As Lovell says: “Proper tea is not theft.”
I mangled the quote from Proudhon (Property is theft). I don’t think he would have approved.
