Pemberley Pu-Erh Loose Leaf Tea

Three or more tins ship at set pricing — $20 each.

Description:

Pemberley Pu-Erh — a single-ingredient loose leaf pu-erh, dark, earthy, and smooth, named for the estate that changes Elizabeth Bennet's mind. Pu-erh is a fermented, aged tea — famously misjudged on first acquaintance, and quietly rich once you know it. If that arc sounds familiar, you've met Mr. Darcy. It comes in a cylinder tin made to be kept, with a bookmark carrying Mr. Darcy and an excerpt from his letter.

Near the end of the novel, Jane asks Elizabeth when she first fell in love with Darcy. Elizabeth answers that it began "from my first seeing his beautiful grounds at Pemberley." She's teasing — mostly. Pemberley is where everything actually turns: the housekeeper's unexpected praise, the portrait gallery, the man himself suddenly warm on his own ground. Readers have spent two centuries debating how much of a joke that line really is.

Why you'll love it:

• 100% loose leaf pu-erh — dark, earthy, and smooth, with the depth of an aged tea
  
• Bookmark included — Mr. Darcy, with an excerpt from his letter
• High caffeine, about 22 cups per tin — the bold morning cup of the collection

Perfect for: Austen readers, bold-tea drinkers, mornings that need resolve — or one half of a romantic pairing with Pride and Peppermint.
