お茶が高価だった時代には想像もできないほど多種多様なティーたちがスーパーの棚に勢ぞろい。どのパケットを購入しようかと悩むことも楽しみのひとつですがティーパックとマグでいただく気軽なお茶が主流になったため優雅なアクセサリーが影を潜めるのは残念です。
Tea was once considered a luxury in England. It was a way to show one’s social status. Today, we can see a wide variety of teas in British supermarkets, most of them conveniently packed in tea bags. Tea has become an everyday drink, easily enjoyed by everyone. However, I feel we lost the charming tradition to enjoy teas by traditional manner.
