Little Urn’s UK Lap of Honour…
Jul 27th
Little Urn’s UK lap of honour has begun! Having returned from his mission to bring Brits in the US a proper brew, Yorkshire Tea’s tea-mobile is now catching up on his domestic duties.
After a day on the beach at Brighton, and a tea party with the good people of the Ethical Tea Partnership in South London, his next stop is Kensington, where he’ll be serving up tea at Tesco on West Cromwell Road today from 1-4.
For more info on Urn’s tour see www.Facebook.com/yorkshiretea
On The Cover Of A Magazine…
Jul 20th
Who’s this sporting a rather fine organic cotton Tea Appreciation Society Tea-Shirt, on the cover of a magazine?
Why it’s Mr Martin Dorey of BBC2 and Campervan Cookbook ‘fame’.
Martin wears Tea Appreciation Society organic cotton tea-shirt, produced using wind power (for electricity) and solar energy (to heat the water that dyes the fabric). We then screen print all our tea-shirts and bags by hand using water based inks.
Tea Appreciation Society organic cotton tea-shirts and tea-bags are available from our shop.

Fancy a proper brew with Yorkshire Tea’s Little Urn?
Jul 4th
After months spent rescuing Brits in America from terrible tea, Yorkshire Tea’s travelling tea-mobile Little Urn is back in the UK, and you could help plan where he goes next…
Based on previous requests from Yorkshire Tea’s Facebook fans, Urn’s going on a ‘Lap of Honour’ to the following areas: Brighton on Mon 25 July, South London on Tue 26 July, North London on Wed 27 July, Bristol on Thu 28 July, Birmingham on Fri 29 July, Manchester on Sat 30 July, and York on Sun 31 July, finishing at a special Yorkshire location on 1 August, Yorkshire Day.
But where he stops is up to you! If you have an event in or near any of those areas on those days, then post a request on Yorkshire Tea’s Facebook wall and Little Urn might come along to serve up free cups of top quality tea!
