Man cannot live on coffee alone. And as much as I tried (often succeeded) in doing so, I must admit it’s nice to have a cup of something else every once in a while. Horses for courses and all that I suppose. And when that cup is one of some of the finest teas with a heritage dating back to the late 17th century, well then so much the better!
On now and running throughout May is a new floral-inspired ‘La Vie en Rose’ afternoon tea in the Rose Lounge at the Sofitel London St. James hotel. I got a sneaky peek taste of this limited-run luxury a couple of weeks back and very much enjoyed it. In particular I really enjoyed the opportunity to have my first sip of Dammann Frères teas and am certain it will not be my last.
