You are probably aware that we are both converts to the whole-leaf real tea movement that is the ethos of teapigs.
Over the last 12 months we have been on the road selling a selection of teapigs teas to a variety of audiences, from beer festivals to family fun days.
It is with great pleasure that we can announce that we have been contracted by teapigs for a 15 day real tea tour this summer!
We will be serving the full teapigs range of delicious whole leaf tea, all piping hot and a selection iced! We will of course be stocking our usual array of delicious snacks.
The first event in the real tea tour is the Lynton and Lynmouth music festival (LLAMA) held over 3 days in June.
Stay tuned for more information…
Dates: 8th – 10th June
