WHY DO YOU THINK TEA IS SO ACE?
The answer is that tea really is the only drink that makes you sigh with pleasure!! You know how it is - you make a cracking cup of tea, have that all important first taste and it’s perfect - right strength and temperature and then suddenly without warning you involuntarily sigh ... and all is well with the world. No other drink makes me sigh with pleasure like this ... surely I’m not the only one!!

I think tea is ace because there’s a certain everyday magic to it that no other drink has. Everyone can brew it (not just wizards) but it (nearly always) produces a drink that exceeds the talent of the brewer themselves. That’s magic…

I think tea is so ace because - to share a favorite quotation of mine - “When in doubt, the answer’s always tea.” Whether one is happy or sad, healthy or ill, celebratory or in solitude, it’s always the right time for a cup of tea. Tea transcends all.

Tea is ace, leaf tea is ace plus, there is a time and place for everything, everything is tea, any time, any place. A kettle by the roadside, a teapot beside the kettle, and me beside the pair of them, watching, waiting and wanting…..... lovely tea, thankyou and `bye for now, time for a brew,

I used to drink coffee (good coffee) and then found I couldn’t hack it any more and turned to tea. What a great thing! I love it. I’m passionate about it. I love trying different types - only the loose leaf for me. I have tried Margaret’s 2 blends and they are truly truly ace ace ace!!! Keep drinking tea for a better world.
