In a new partnership with Pekoe Tea, Old Curiosity the Edinburgh craft distillery has developed a new range of herbal teas. The tea is inspired by its award-winning range of gin which it produces at the Secret Herb Garden.
There are three different flavours using the same botanicals as the Old Curiosity Secret Garden Gin and blended with Ceylon Tea: Lemon Verbena, Apothecary Rose and Lavender. All are the same price £5.95, making them the perfect gift paired with a bottle of gin!
Each box of hand-picked and dried tea comes with its own, organic cotton reusable tea bag so you can enjoy the loose-leaf tea in its natural form and without generating any unnecessary waste.
Hamish Martin, Director at the Old Curiosity Distillery, commented: “It has been a pleasure working with Pekoe Tea to develop this new G&Tea range, which use all of the same botanicals that you would find in our range of Old Curiosity gins, then blended with Ceylon Tea to create this deliciously refreshing drink. Each of our leading flavours, Lemon Verbena, Apothecary Rose and Lavender, are dried in full leaf before being added to the blend which captures the very best flavour.”
The botanicals are grown at The Secret Herb Garden which is an award-winning nursery with over 600 naturally grown and tended herbs and flowers. They are all picked, dried and infused by hand.
The Secret Garden G&Tea range is available now online at theoldcuriosity.co.uk
