The Tea Party

English

Over 150 million cups of tea are drunk daily in Britain; we are now a

nation of tea drinkers with tea being our most drunk beverage. In the

early 1800s, Anna the Duchess of Bedford introduced the custom of the

afternoon tea or tea party. In the 21st century afternoon tea has become

hugely vogue and popular.

You will experience tea English style first hand with our Vintage

English Tea Party, traditional afternoon tea with a delectable and

decadent selection of fancy snacks that one would expect for afternoon

tea.

Indian

Masala chai (the Indian take on tea) has firmly established itself as a

popular beverage, not just outlasting the British Raj but spreading beyond

South Asia to the rest of the world.

During our Indian tea party, experience tea drunk the South Asian way,

savour both authentic savoury and sweet treats from the Indian

subcontinent, including classics like spicy samosas and a luscious

selection of mithai.

Legend says that tea was first discovered in China about 5000 years ago

and that Chinese Emperor Shen Nung was the first person to drink the

brew. The story goes that whilst boiling water to drink, a few tea leaves

from a nearby tree blew into his pot. Whether this is true or not, it is

certain that all tea originated from China, and this influence has now

gone worldwide. During our Chinese Tea Party sample a selection of

fine Chinese teas and snacks and learn about Chinese tea customs and

traditions.

North African

The ritual of the Moroccan tea ceremony can be seen all over North

Africa and adopted throughout the region. Making tea is a ritual and

has become an almost sacred ceremony as well as the country’s’

national drink. ‘Maghrebi’ mint tea has become associated with

Morocco.

Drink ‘Maghrebi’ style mint tea accompanied by sweet authentic

treats like baklawa in our North African Tea Party.
