My Mother Loved Tea

the long version

One day in 1945, Ruth Bigelow shared her private recipe tea with a friend. The friend in turn served it to a group of women who had nothing but constant comments about the delicious hot drink, and an American tea icon was born. David Bigelow tells the story of his family's business that began in his mother's kitchen when she created "Constant Comment," America's best-known tea. Today, Bigelow Tea has expanded its product line far beyond its flagship Constant Comment Tea to include black teas, traditional teas, flavored teas, herbal teas, decaffeinated teas and organic teas. A selection of Bigelow Teas can be found virtually anywhere that tea is sold. Filled with pictures. This is a book for every tea library. - Publisher.
