The rules for making a good cup of tea haven’t changed much…only the accents have.

You can follow the guide by warming the pot before and not over boiling the water but the No.1 rule is simple.

To make a good cup of tea you have to use a high quality tea.

That’s why our specialist tea tasters select only the finest leaves for Imporient giving our tea exceptional brightness, colour and flavour.

Hi there………I live in Southsea, Portsmouth and nipped into one of our many Co-op stores to buy some Twinings English Breakfast tea.However, I noticed your EB tea and gave it a try………….now I AM ADDICTED.What a great tasting tea, not a weak gnats’ pee, not overly strong - just right.The only snag is it’s very addictive - TWO 100-bag boxfulls drunk in three weeks between me and the missus? You’d better believe it.We know which tea we’ll stick with. Just a pity we had never heard of it/seen it many moons ago.

All the best

Dave Colville - Southsea, Hants.

You probably don’t remember me, however I came to your stall at the farmers’ market in Bristol a few months back. I sampled the Imporiant tea and fell in love with it ha ha. I haven’t drank anything else since!! Its weird I can’t stand any other tea now, and I’ve converted most of my family and friends too.Also Thank you for the website address, I’ll let my friends know about the site too, so they can stop stealing my stash ha ha

Congratulations to London on becoming the world’s largest Fairtrade City.

 

On Thursday 23 October 2008, the nation’s capital achieved Fairtrade City status.

Mayor of London Boris Johnson said: “Its super news that London is now officially the world’s largest Fairtrade city, with 20 Fairtrade Boroughs in the capital. It sends a clear message that Londoners want their products to be Fairtrade and to make a significant difference to the lives of farmers and workers in the developing world.”
