Stratford Hearthside Black, Lapsang Souchong and Oolong Loose Leaf Tea – 4 oz Tin

Stratford Hearthside Black,Lapsang Souchong & Oolong Loose Leaf Tea – 4 oz Tin

Stratford Hearthside takes its inspiration from the timber-framed streets and centuries-old hearths of Stratford-upon-Avon, a market town whose story stretches back long before its most famous son, William Shakespeare. Granted its market charter in the 12th century, Stratford grew into a bustling town of merchants, craftspeople, inns and taverns, with open hearths burning at the heart of Tudor homes and gathering places. It is easy to imagine the Stratford of Shakespeare’s day—the scent of woodsmoke drifting from crooked chimneys, ale and conversation filling the inns, and travelers seeking warmth beside the fire after a cold journey through Warwickshire. Rich, malty black and oolong teas are layered with smoky Lapsang Souchong to create a deep amber infusion with an earthy fireside aroma, mellow sweetness and lingering smoke. Bold and full-bodied without losing its smoothness, it has an almost whisky-like warmth and depth that feels especially comforting on cold evenings. A tea for firesides, old stories and unhurried nights, Stratford Hearthside is our little taste of Tudor Stratford in a cup.
