Tales from the tea road
Born of the necessity to bring order to a growing society of unruly privateers and corsairs who had taken shelter in the Crescent Cove, the Pirate Lords turned to democratic principles and rule of law, establishing a strict but fair governance and founding the city of Havenport. The Treaty of Reason, as it came to be known, was a signed document drawn upon the tattered remains of the Letters of Marque under which many a pirate had sailed. While the Treaty would eventually be updated and drafted as the Constitution of Havenport, the groundwork set by these captains, who once gave the cove a fearsome reputation, helped establish a stable foundation for the city to grow as a port of commerce and higher learning. The once bloodied waters of the Crescent Cove have assured safe harbor to vessels for a hundred years.

I’ve been a tea of the month subscriber for a little over 6 months, and I’ve been loving each new blend as it comes my way! Definitely a great way to try teas I might not have otherwise. Quality tea every time, I’m a big fan!

I've had the tea of the month for 4 months now, and every flavor has been great. The most recent was such an interesting mix of flavors. It's exciting to get the new one each month, and I have to say they have a wonderful variety.
