To All Consumers Of Teas And Coffees,
s . d . DITTO BLACK LEAF , STRONG MELLOW FLAVOUR .. r 4 8 This Tea is specially recommended . It possesses both strength and richness . The leaf of this sort is gathered when the plant is in its maturity , and before the more "bitter , woody , and astringent property of the vegetable is developed . Where price is not an object , this is the Congou that will give constant and general satisfaction .
DITTO , BLACK WIRY LEAF , RICH SOUGHING FLAVOUR 5 0 Of Congous this is the rarest description . Its excellence consists in its partaking largely of the Souchong flavour , which , in all probability , arises from some peculiarity of soil , or situation , rather than from any other cause . Suck are the most valuable Teas that go by the name of CONGOU . The quantity cleared for home consumption , in the year 1844 , from the
London warehouses , amounted to about 23 , 500 , 000 lbs ., or two-thirds of the entire quantity of all descriptions cleared during the same period . 2 . SOUCHONG , GOOD 4 8 Of Souchongs there are various qualities , but they have all one generic character . They produce a slightly yellowish-brown liquor , and have a soft mellow flavour . Much , however , which goes by the name of SOUCHONG , is only CONGOU , with , perhaps , a small admixture of
SOUCHONG . The entire quantity cleared in the Port of London in the year 1844 , amounted to only about 800 , 0001 bs ., and of this , by far the greater proportion was inferior to middling CONGOU , SO that but little of what is sold as fine SOUCHONG has any claim to such a character . The truth is that many who profess to sell SOUCHONG , never have a chest within their shops from one year's end to another . As COMMON SOUCHONGS have no distinctive excellence , the COMPANY do not recommend them . They may be had from 3 s . 9 d . to 4 s . 6 d . per lb .
DITTO , FINE 5 0 DITTO , FINEST LAPSAHG 5 6 Souchongs , when really fine , must be pronounced the richest of all Black Teas . The Company only specially recommend the fine , at 5 s ., and FINEST LAPSANG , at 5 s . 6 d . No finer Black Tea than the latter is imported , and if price is not a consideration , its rich and exquisite flavour cannot but recommend it .
TIIE COMPANY'S H 0 WQUA MIXTURE 5 6 This Tea is a judicious combination of the most delightfully-fragrant and exhilirating qualities that can be brought together . To the studious , and all who are subject to a depression of the nerves of the brain , after a full meal , this TEA cannot but prove a most agreeable and refreshing beverage . Some advertisers of Teas of this description under the names of Ouqua , & chave published statements respecting them the most
Mowqua , , fabulous that can be imagined . Whatever may be pretended to the contrary , they all derive their distinctive character from the SCENTED PEKOES , and whatever superiority one kind may have over another arises solely from the taste and judgment of the party under whose direction the mixture is made . To those who have never used this description of Tea the Company would recommend a trial , at the same time stating , that whatever amount may be given for it , beyond that charged by the Company , is money thrown away .
