My English friend, from Yorkshire, invited me
to her back yard tea party. "No cream or sugar in your tea, if you
don't like it," she promised.
Good
thing since I never liked tea until I had it without sugar.
After the introductions to the other
guests, we lounged in rose-sprigged deck chairs and waited
as she poured tea in the proper English manner.
Good tea, delicious scones, great conversation with friends,
and an afternoon that flew by. A day to remember.
The tea that my English friend served that
day was
Taylors of Harrogate Yorkshire tea, which we include
in this tea gift basket along with assorted tea cookies and
an Oneida tea pot.

Yorkshire Tea Company, dating
back to 1886, is one of the few remaining
family tea merchants in England. Yorkshire
Tea is actually
a carefully balanced blend of over thirty
specially selected teas from three of the
world’s best tea growing regions – Africa,
India and Sri Lanka. The result is a
traditional brew with a strong aroma, rich
color and satisfying flavor.
Did you realize that English
Tea isn't actually grown in England?
The climate is much too cold and damp. The
English have done an exceptional job of
making an imported product all their own.
