The winner this week was another Tea Trader… stay tuned for details

*We’ve heard from the first winner who has just ripped open the package, and she is giving the Lord Petersham a thumbs-up for starters; and was nice enough to let us know that via email. Thanks Melanie P!

Erik, I think it would be more newsworthy if McDonalds were accused of GOOD taste. Less likely, I suppose. Here they portray Australians as beer drinking morons who can’t wait to shove a burger up their face. That […]

*Our first winner is Melanie P. of the USA. Congratulations

The first weekly winner has been drawn. They have been emailed and once they have replied, we will announce their name. This week’s winner’s location: Los Angeles, USA.

This is an automatic version of the manual method I used to brew tea in 80 seconds for a takeaway. However, I think it is patently obvious that its coffee extraction is going to be more in line with what is […]

I am also like that. I have about 40 staple teas that I can make with my eyes closed. The rest I have to think about.
