🎉 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝟵𝟬 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗚𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗻𝘀 – 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗮 𝗕𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 ☕

To mark 90 wonderful years in business, we’re proud to introduce our 90th Anniversary Heritage Tea Collection — three special blends inspired by the generations of the Guntons family who helped shape our shop.

🍃 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘁’𝘀 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗼-𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗮 𝗧𝗲𝗮
Created by Herbert, from the first generation of Guntons to run the shop. A carefully balanced blend of Large Leaf Assam and Keemun, producing a malty, deeply aromatic tea with gentle floral notes. The Keemun softens the strength of the Assam, giving a smooth, mellow and richly satisfying cup.

🍃 𝗚𝗲𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗿𝗲𝘆’𝘀 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗲𝗮
Developed by Geoffrey, the second generation of Guntons. A balanced blend of Assam and Ceylon teas with a dash of Kenyan, creating a bright, malty, full-flavoured and smooth tea — the perfect way to start the day.

🍃 𝗞𝗲𝗶𝘁𝗵’𝘀 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗼𝗼𝗻 𝗧𝗲𝗮
Curated by Keith, the third generation of Guntons. A blend of Large Leaf Ceylon and Darjeeling producing a bright, citrusy, fruity tea with delicate floral and spicy notes, finished with a mellow and smooth character — ideal for a relaxing afternoon cup.

These blends celebrate three generations, three stories, and 90 years of tradition.

Pop into the shop to discover them and raise a cup with us to 90 years of Guntons. Thank you for being part of our journey. 🫖
