Pembrokeshire Rose Tea, 50g Tin £5.50
Since the first members of the Tudor line were born at Pembroke Castle Pembrokeshire's flag has featured a rose. Here a wonderful Tea Hybrid rose with a sweet petal and has been blended with a dark leaf tea.
Using rose petals, hips, stem and leaf in this mix to balance the bitter sweet flavours.
It is best made with water, just off the boil , 2-3 minute infusion and with or without milk. A good tip for this tea is to re-fill the pot with boiling water before pouring a second serving as the rose petals can sometimes taste bitter after a long infusion.
