Both of my grandmothers introduced me to teas. My mumsie introduced me to milk infused by dark tea; whereas, my nan started me on Constant Comment by Bigelow. So, you see, I have been a tea drinker since childhood.
The House of Bigelow is my "go to" brand... my favorite flavor is their Plantation Mint which is packaged in a bright green box. This, you should know, is spearmint -- not peppermint.
Last summer I had the good fortune to tour the Bigelow Tea Plantation in South Carolina -- the only tea plantation in North America.
If you like the tea classics, I recommend the timeless line of Bigelow. They also offer some herbal varietals.
Here is their website: www.bigelowtea.com
Five tea bag stars for Bigelow!
