We’ve made plenty of friends during our time working at the Taste Festivals. It’s such a perfect place to meet like minded individuals with a flare for the unique and passion to succeed.

Whilst preparing for Taste of London this year I had the pleasure to meet Ajit Madan, founder of Camellia’s Tea House, a beautiful little Tea House situated on London’s Carnaby Street. Ajit and I worked on the Press Area of Taste of London, using Milk and Honey Table Linen to dress the tables and Camellia’s brand of teas from around the world to refresh the members of the press. It was a resounding success (as of course was the festival) so I promised Ajit I’d let all our followers in on one of the best kept secrets in London.

Both  Ajit and his sister, Lubna have a mutual passion for tea and this evolved into the tea rooms in 2007. Their partnership stems from their desire to create a marriage of handcrafted quality, unique tea blends and health. Today Camellia’s Tea House is a premium holistic lifestyle brand where many of the teas are blended by hand, using their own original recipes. They only use tea and herbs from specialist tea gardens known for their quality and organic cultivation. And they ensure that every aspect of the business, down to their hand-finished packaging, reflects their individuality and passion for tea and herbal infusions.

Being somewhat of a tea freak myself, my personal favourite from Camellia’s collection has to be their Jasmine Bai Mao Huo green tea infusion. Apparently it was drunk by Chinese ladies for it’s beauty enhancing properties. If it’s good enough for them, it’s certainly good enough for me!

If you’re in the area please pop in and say I sent you, alternatively if you can’t get there in person you can also buy their tea online.
