The first English reference to tea dates back to 1615 when Richard Wickham, an employee of the East India Company stationed in Japan, asked some Chinese Merchants to bring him a pot of the best sort of tea, to take back to England as a gift. 

Today, over 400 years later, tea is still a great gift and it is the second most popular beverage in the world with only water being more commonly drunk.

At Richard and Wickham, we believe that great tasting, high quality tea is a luxury we all deserve. So don't wait, try some today and find out what quality really tastes like.
