Brewing up a storm with the RAF

RAFA

Breakfast Tea

RAFA Tea for Heroes is a very traditional English Breakfast tea of the like we haven't seen for many years. A bespoke blend created for the RAF - when only the best will do.

50p of the price you pay goes to the Royal Air Forces Association Wings Appeal repaying just a little of what so many of us owe to so few.

Rare Tea & the RAF

Rare Tea & the RAF

Henrietta first created this tea for a wonderful man called Terry Clark, a veteran of the Battle of Britain.

"It was a great honour and pleasure to meet him when I made this short film about tea and the RAF. It was an even greater honour to make tea for him.

Terry thought it was rather good. I've been making it for him ever since. We thought you might like it too."
