][1]A brief mention for the Pekoe Tea bar and shop which is celebrating its first birthday on Edinburgh’s Leven Street. The fine tea shop has just taken delivery of a new batch of specially blended Christmas tea made from a mix of black tea, apple pieces, almond, cinnamon and bourbon vanilla.
Real tea buffs may also be interested in the arrival of a rare white China tea called Ancient White Buds. It’s just come in from the Mannong Fair Trade Tea Garden in Yunnan Province.
The blog liked the sound of the Monkey Picked Ti Kuan Yin in the connoisseur’s section but also cooed over the display teas which open up like flowers in the glass. That’s Christmas sorted for the aunties.
