Happy Saint Andrew's Day! In the spirit of celebrating everything Scottish, we're taking the opportunity to introduce you to our Scottish-themed teas: handmade fudge tea, whisky teas, and the epic Kinnettles Gold, grown right here on Scottish soil.

Philosophy and tea have an intimate connection in China and Japan, where tea is not just a drink but a practice. In recognition of World Philosophy Day, we will delve into the connections between philosophy and tea in Japan. We'll see how tea has been shaped by wabi-sabi aesthetic philosophy and the idea of self-cultivation.

This week, we are celebrating Japanese tea culture. When one thinks of Japan, the image of the tea ceremony often comes to mind. Tea has been an integral part of Japanese culture for centuries, with a rich history dating back to ancient times. This blog will take you on a journey through Japanese tea, from its fascinating history to more detailed explorations of teas like Sencha, Gyokuro, and Matcha.
