No Trouble So Great or Grave


There is no trouble so great or grave that cannot be much diminished by a nice cup of tea. ~Bernard-Paul Heroux

Snow Cap Meets Cherry Red Henley

























Ah. The Henley Teapot. The Rolls-Royce of teapots. Just one of the many that my company carries. And. Ahhhh.....Snow Cap Green Tea. Wedges of oranges and Italian meringue flavour this sweet and spicy green tea. This tea may be used repeatedly - 3-4 times. Steep 1 tsp. of loose tea for 2-3 minutes and then enjoy a taste of enchantment. How do you like my company's new postcard?

Teapot

A teapot is a vessel used for steeping tea leaves or a herbal mix in near-boiling water. Tea may be either in a tea bag or loose, in which case a tea strainer will be needed, either to hold the leaves as they steep or to catch the leaves inside the teapot when the tea is poured. Teapots usually have an opening with a lid at their top, where the tea and water are added, a handle for holding by hand and a spout through which the tea is served. Some teapots have a strainer built-in on the inner edge of spout. A small hole in the lid is necessary for air access inside to stop the spout from dripping and splashing when tea is poured. In modern times, a tea cosy may be used to enhance the steeping or to prevent the contents of the teapot from cooling too rapidly. A tea connoisseur will usually warm the teapot by rinsing it with boiling water and then draining it completely before making tea.
