From Bentley's
Bentley's Tea are distributed by the Boston Tea Company, founded in 1949. Boston Tea Company was the first to market flavored teas with the introduction of its Boston's Mint-in-Tea, a delightful blend of orange pekoe tea and Kentucky spearmint. In 1960, the company introduced and was granted a trademark for its "Boston Tea Party" blend, which re-created a popular blend that dates back to the colonists in the 1770s. This product is a blend of fine black teas blended with orange peels and cloves--also known as orange spice tea. This product was a favorite of the first lady, Jacqueline Kennedy, who served it frequently to White House guests.
I'm very disappointed in the quality of the box, so much so that I haven't even tasted the tea. The product description says it is "wooden with full velvet lining", when in truth it is cheap pressed cardboard with wood grain contact paper (or something similar). Very flimsy (cheap) hinges and clasp. I considered giving it to someone as a gift but I would be embarrassed doing so. Don't waste our money, especially since Amazon won't let you return it.
