A Tete-À -Tete Over Tea

A tenth-generation member of the legendary tea family, Stephen Twining takes pleasure in each of his 15 cups a day. The cheery Englishman is hardly the fuddy-duddy one would expect as he shares a slice of his life, emblematic cup of tea in hand.

You must be asked this a lot, but how do you take your tea?
I enjoy different teas in different ways but never, ever with sugar. So much skill and effort goes into creating each tea bag and it is all wasted the minute sugar touches the drink. Sugar goes through a refinement process and, when you mix it with something as delicately natural as a cup of tea, the harsh taste of that process comes through.
