Mr. CoffeeŽ - Tea History (#)
„Tea was first sold in England at Garway's Coffee House in London. The East India Company operated out of several sites in the City of London, the first in Philpot Lane, Fenchurch, then it took a lease on Lord Northampton's mansion, Crosby Hall, Bishopsgate and then in 1658 another move before it finally leased Lord Craven's House in Leadenhall Street.Under the terms of a charter granted by Elizabeth I, The East India Company owned all trading rights and controlled the sale of those imported goods back to Britain.“

„1600-1800s For 200 years East India sailing ships returning from China brought regular supplies. Although the steam ships bringing teas from India, Ceylon and Africa frequently berthed further down river, their cargoes would be brought up as far as London Bridge in the Clipper ships during the 1880's by barges. This area became the centre of the UK tea trade. The London tea trade has conducted the business of unloading ships, marketing and blending on both sides of the Thames at London Bridge and although the tea auctions were held north of the river, the South Bank boasted the most prestigious warehousing facilities.“

„Likewise primary producers also need to look at forward integration into processing of value added coffees at origins through joint ventures/partnerships; more so in countries like India that have a potential domestic market also. New types of producer-buyer relationships such as contract farming also need to be given impetus along with development and promotion of "fair trade" coffees. With the coffee industry the world over undergoing a "secular" change, producers need to be innovative, goal oriented and forward looking. The traditional mind set of the coffee grower has to change and in this new environment, it is producers with entrepreneurial vision and managerial capacity who will survive and succeed.“

India Coffee- Indiacoffee - Indian Coffee, monthly magazine - Over a Cup of Coffee
„We may not have the luxury of having eight cups of coffee, given the state of our physique and the worrying nature of our minds. And yet, even the generation reared on "one black coffee" still realizes that there is no greater pleasure than the perfectly made first cup of coffee. Everyone talks about getting up on the right side of the bed as the perfect start to the day, but to me, it has been and will always be the perfectly brewed cup of coffee, which sets the tone for the day.“
