Yar Tor - English Afternoon Tea Gift Box

The mighty Yes Tor used to be flagged as the highest peak on Dartmoor until it was rather rudely demoted to second place, for the sake of a few meters.

It's sits on the Okehampton side of Dartmoor and rises spectacularly to a height of over 2000ft. Such a splendid vantage has given it in a firm place in history with both with ancient civilisations & British modern military.

The roads are well trodden but the hike is still steep. Set of early in a clear day to take advantage of the vast and inspiring views.

The dangers posed by microplastics on the environment are well documented. What people are less aware of are the staggering amounts of microplastics present in most tea bags. When steeped in hot water, they release billions of microplastic particles into the mug, each one the size of a grain of pollen.

When purchased in loose form, this tea is sealed within a biodegradable cornstarch pouch. So when buying our teas you can do so safe in the knowledge that our packaging materials are completely biodegradeable and free of microplastics.
