Bigelow Teaˇs Charleston Tea Plantation: Americaˇs Largest Bigelow Tea’s Charleston Tea Plantation: America’s Largest Working Tea Garden Founder Bill Hall shares his knowledge of one of America's favorite beverages. Myrtle Beach, SC (PRWEB) October 02, 2014 -- Ninety-nine percent of all tea grown in the world comes from some thirty-four countries in Asia, Africa and South America. That’s what makes it so remarkable that nestled among ancient oaks on Wadmalaw Island, one of the many sea islands of South Carolina’s Lowcountry, is a hidden garden: the Charleston Tea Plantation. It’s very much a working plantation that has been growing and producing tea since the early ‘80’s. Last year some 60,000 visitors traveled here to learn firsthand how tea is made. It’s truly America’s Tea Garden. Founder Bill Hall and his partners, Eunice and David Bigelow, the owners of Bigelow Tea, have dedicated themselves to producing fine tea as well as creating one of the most unique destinations for visitors to the Lowcountry. Bill Hall, the Plantation’s founder has truly been the creative force that has kept this wonderful place humming. A good part of his dedication comes from his life-long love of tea. It turns out that in his youth he became the third generation in his family to be trained as a professional tea taster. This is a very rare profession that less than a hundred people in the world can lay claim to. It requires a very sophisticated palate that can identify the origins and the value of a tea grown anywhere in the world. Bill has just such a palate and brings his skills to every batch of tea that is produced at the plantation. “In my time, all tea tasters had to be trained in London, England, the center of the tea world,” Bill says. Tea from all over the world arrived for sale at the London tea auction on a weekly basis. This is when an apprentice’s tea tasting skills are trained, developed and refined. The apprentice will taste approximately 800 – 1,000 cups of tea per day, five days a week for four years before completing his apprenticeship. “Tea is much more complicated than, say, wine,” Hall explained. “Grapes all ripen at the same time, but tea is harvested every 15 days and the quality changes with each harvest. While all tea comes from the same plant, where the tea is grown changes the taste and quality dramatically.” The tea grown on the Charleston Tea Plantation is different from any grown in the world. “Our tea’s distinct flavor is found nowhere else,” Hall says with pride. “Our weather conditions, soil and growing season are nearly perfect for tea.” Tea needs high humidity, rainfall, and good soil that drains easily. Wadmalaw’s sandy soil, hot, humid summers and frequent rain combine to form the delicious tea so loved by tea drinkers throughout the Carolinas and the world. Growing tea is a science and an art; one that Hall and his partners at Bigelow Tea continue to refine. As soon as the new growth flushes on the plants in the spring, the new harvest begins, running through early November. A special harvester clips the new tea leaves from the top of the plants every 15 days, but the first harvest is the most sought after. In the world of tea it’s known as the First Flush. Interestingly, the fields, with their carefully groomed tea plants, look very orderly, almost like a field of landscaped ornamental shrubs. “It takes two to three years for a new plant to begin producing and plants mature at about five years.” New tea fields are added each year. Cuttings are taken from existing tea plans and grown in a state-of-the-art greenhouse. A factory tour allows visitors to see all of the machinery required for making tea and large TV screens explain the entire tea making process. This up-close look at the unique process of growing and making tea is a one-of-a- PRWeb ebooks - Another online visibility tool from PRWeb kind experience. An open tea bar in the gift shop allows for tastings of all the various teas that are offered by the Plantation. There is also a trolley that, for a small charge, can take those interested on a great half-hour ride. Visitors get a behind the scenes glimpse at the greenhouse where thousands of tiny tea bushes are just getting started in life. Education is an important part of the mission at Charleston Tea Plantation. “Ninety-nine out of a hundred people have no idea that tea is grown in the United States,” Hall stated. “We want people to come here and have a good time while they are learning about tea.” The plantation also hosts weddings and events throughout the year. The First Flush Festival in the spring is probably the most well-known and is attended by thousands who enjoy a day of live music, food and, of course, tea! As you might imagine, Bill Hall is a pretty busy guy. In addition to his numerous duties on the plantation he also has many speaking engagements in the local community. And for groups of 30 or more, Bill is available to give an up-close and personal tour of the plantation. Hall, together with his partners, Eunice and David Bigelow, are working hard to expand the knowledge and love for tea. About Bigelow Tea’s Charleston Tea Plantation In South Carolina, near Charleston, there’s a historic island called Wadmalaw Island. It’s ten miles long and six miles wide with sandy soils and a sub-tropical climate--the perfect conditions to grow the Camiillia Sinesis plant (otherwise known as tea)! That’s where you’ll find Bigelow Tea’s Charleston Tea Plantation, America’s largest working tea garden. Because Wadmalaw island cannot be commercially developed, it’s a natural oasis and a step back in time. Bigelow Tea purchased the plantation in 2003 and now grows and produces American Classic Tea. Guests are invited to the grounds for weddings, tours and a variety of music festivals creating the perfect way to experience historic, Southern culture and a living piece of American history. The Charleston Tea Plantation is open seven days a week and includes tours, trolly rides and a Plantation Gift shop where visitors can help themselves to all the iced American Classic Tea they can drink.

    Tea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 03-11-09 12:04 Tea From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Tea is the agricultural product of the leaves, leaf buds, and internodes of the Camellia sinensis plant, prepared and cured by various methods. "Tea" also refers to the aromatic beverage prepared from the cured leaves by combination with hot or boiling water,[1] and is the common name for the Camellia sinensis plant itself. After water, tea is the most widely-consumed beverage in the world.[2] It has a cooling, slightly bitter, astringent flavour which many enjoy.[3] The four types of tea most commonly found on the market are black tea, oolong tea, green tea and white tea,[4] all of which can be made from the same bushes, processed differently, and in the case of fine white tea grown differently. Pu-erh tea, a post-fermented tea, is also often classified as amongst the most popular types of tea.[5] Green Tea leaves in a Chinese The term "herbal tea" usually refers to an infusion or tisane of gaiwan. leaves, flowers, fruit, herbs or other plant material that contains no Camellia sinensis.[6] The term "red tea" either refers to an infusion made from the South African rooibos plant, also containing no Camellia sinensis, or, in Chinese, Korean, Japanese and other East Asian languages, refers to black tea.

  • Developing Futures and Swap Markets for Tea
    April 2018 CCP:TE 18/3 E COMMITTEE ON COMMODITY PROBLEMS INTERGOVERNMENTAL GROUP ON TEA TWENTY-THIRD SESSION Hangzhou, the People's Republic of China, 17-20 May 2018 DEVELOPING FUTURES AND SWAP MARKETS FOR TEA I. INTRODUCTION 1. International tea prices are characterized by recurrent price cycles and revenue fluctuations. The 71st session of the Committee on Commodity Problems, in October 2016, urged policy makers to give due attention to such price movements. The FAO Intergovernmental Group on Tea (FAO – IGG/Tea)1, as well as industry bodies and governments, have identified tea futures markets as a possible option to help alleviate excessive price fluctuation. 2. Tea futures contracts enable producers and others to manage their price risk, and improve price discovery in the tea market. While futures contracts for coffee have been actively traded since 1882 and contracts for cocoa since 1925, there are no futures contracts for tea. Some in the tea industry believe that with its more than 3 000 varieties, tea is too heterogeneous to trade on a futures exchange. They argue that for tea, one cannot establish a “reference variety” that can be the basis for a standardized contract, nor a system of discounts and premiums that would allow for a range of teas to act as the underlying for a futures contract. Evidence may suggest otherwise. 3. This document aims to support discussions on tea futures and swap contracts during the 23rd Session of the FAO – IGG/Tea. The document briefly highlights the situation of the tea market, identifying price volatility as one of the major challenges affecting the sub-sector, before discussing conditions towards a successful development of tea futures and swap contracts.

  • Mark T. Wendell Catalogs
    Welcome to the Mark T. Wendell Tea Company’s 2020 Catalog As one of the country’s oldest and storied tea importers, the Mark T. Wendell Tea Company has been providing fine teas to tea enthusiasts for over a century. We are pleased to offer a full range of estate grown specialty teas, signature tea blends, herbal and fruit tisanes, imported packaged tea brands, as well as a wide selection of uniquely crafted teapots and tea brewing accessories. Our philosophy is to select and purchase only the highest quality whole leaf teas from tea gardens and tea importers located around the world and to offer them to tea enthusiasts with a distinct focus on each customer’s satisfaction. The remarkable world of healthy and invigorating specialty teas has never been so accessible! Importing our tea offerings over the past year has been challenging on several fronts, all unprecedented in recent memory. Our government’s implementation of an import tax on Chinese teas left us with varying price increases on not only teas from China, but many teas produced in other countries. There is no replacement for authentic Chinese teas, so we have tried to minimize these sharp price increases as best we can without sacrificing the quality that stands behind our brand. New for 2020, our focus on quality and ingenuity has allowed us to represent two unique British tea brands as their US distributor. With fun flavors and eco- friendly packaging, the range of Hampstead Organic & Biodynamic Teas and We Are Tea offerings now spotlight our imported packaged brand selections.

Two insert splints on the back. 31.5 x 26.2 cm. (12 3/8 x 10 1/4 in.) PROVENANCE: Purchased by the Mother of the current owner in Russia during the 1920s; thence by descent in Family Collection. LOT NOTES: During the late 1920s, shortly after the Russian Revolution, two young New York society women, sisters Adelaide and Helen Hooker secretly traveled to Russia “out of curiosity and cussedness.” Unbeknownst to their father, the president of the American Defense Society, they spent over six months in snowy Russia, pursuing adventure in Moscow, Leningrad, Vladimir, Novgorod, and Suzdal among other cities. Searching for a glimpse of “Old Russia,” the women sought-out ancient churches and monasteries, just as they were being taken over by the government and converted to Anti-Religious museums. This icon was among those that Adelaide and Helen Hooker purchased from these establishments and brought to the United States, in effect saving them from becoming victims of iconoclasm. In the States, the icons were kept in esteemed family collections. One of the sisters would go on to marry the IRA officer Ernie O'Malley, the other the writer John P. Marquand. Their youngest sister, Blanchette, went on to marry John D. Rockefeller III, and would become a major benefactor of the Museum of Modern Art, where she served as president from 1972 to 1985.

  • The Price of a Cup of Tea
    66 The Trade Trap THE PRICE OF A CUP OF TEA hile the slump in primary commodity prices has had a profound Wimpact on Third World producers, it has hardly been felt by consumers in the Northern industrialised countries. When, for example, the International Coffee Agreement collapsed in 1989 and coffee prices fell to half their 1980 level, there was no immediate change in the price paid for coffee by consumers. In fact, international commodity prices are only a fraction of the amount ultimately paid for the product by the consumer. This is because the real value in commodity trading is not in the primary production of sugar, coffee, or tin, but in the subsequent activities, such as the processing, packaging, transporting, and retailing, that occur in the product's journey to the consumer. This chapter traces one commodity, tea, in its journey from the tea picker to the tea drinker. There is no particular significance in the choice of tea. Like all commodities the marketing patterns of tea are, to a great extent, dictated by its physical characteristics. So while each commodity has its own peculiarities, they all tell much the same story. Oxfam's experience of the tea industry comes from working with tea workers in a number of countries. In common with many other primary-commodity producer groups, such as the Bolivian tin miners, tea workers tend to work long hours for very little money. They lack access to basic services, suffer health problems, and are poorly educated. They are, in every sense, at the end of a long and complex chain that links them to the consumer.
