April 2024

April's pairing brings together our Lavender Earl Grey with The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah.

A story of two sisters, separated by years and experience, each embarking on her own dangerous path toward survival, love, and freedom in German-occupied, war-torn France – a heartbreakingly beautiful novel that celebrates the resilience of human spirit and the durability of women.

French lavender adorns this popular British Earl Grey with an aromatic infusion of deliciousness. Citrusy bergamot only tastes better with lavender.

March 2024

This month we're excited to share The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane, by Lisa See.

A moving novel about tradition, tea farming and the bonds between mothers and daughters. A powerful story about circumstances, culture, and distance… paints an unforgettable portrait of a little-known region and its people and celebrates the bond of family.Β 

While reading this story about ancient Pu-erh trees and their prized, sought after flavor… imbibe with one of our bestselling flavored Pu-erhs, with the traditional deep earthy tea base softened with mouth-watering notes of caramel and butterscotch.

Get Scottish Caramel Pu-erh 10% off sizes 4oz+ for the month of March.

Buy The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane at Northshire Books.
