First Colony
 
Does anyone have any info on this brand? Quality? I bought a Darjeeling
from them which kind of sucks, but thier English breakfast leaf tea is not
bad.

First Colony down in Norfolk seems to have some decent teas, and all of the
Colonial Williamsburg branded tea is actually sourced by First Colony. Most
of the teas they select are varieties popular in the 18th century, as a result
of their biggest customer being CW.

I think their lapsang is the best I have ever tried. The bohea is entirely
drinkable as is the young hyson. Never tried their Darjeeling.
