Make sure this Father’s Day rocks!

Just in time for Father’s Day..

This year we are asking you to tell us what you have to thank dad for.  To celebrate the wonderful men in our lives, we are running a competition until the 10th of June.  You could win a dad our Scottish Gin & Whisky tea cocktail set!  It includes our Isle of Harris Gin Tea (100g), our Tomatin Whisky Tea (50g) and a recipe sheet so that dad can create some fabulous tea cocktails at home.  Take a look at the prize here.  Head over to our social media and follow the instructions to enter: Twitter – @eteaket Instagram – @eteaket Facebook – eteaket.

Introducing: Watermelon Burst & Rhubarb Rocks!

The sun is about to shine and we are ready! ‘Watermelon Burst’ and ‘Rhubarb Rocks!’ are our latest Limited Edition blends. Refreshing, revitalizing and perfect for summer.

Watermelon Burst is a blend of, Melon, Apple, Aloe Vera, Beetroot, Kiwi and Rose Buds. This fruit blend is great as a cold brew or iced tea. (Tea Tip: why not cold brew some Watermelon Burst and mix it with ice, some tonic water, mint and a splash of gin?! Hello summer!)

Rhubarb Rocks  is a refreshing mix of Rhubarb bits, along with fennel, apple, strawberry leaves, rose petals and orange blossom to name a few, this blend is a breath of fresh air.

We think the most precious gift you can give to any dad is time!  Therefore, why not arrange a Fathers Day picnic?  You could brew up some Watermelon Burst or Rhubarb Rocks, get his favourite picnic foods together and head to your closest park.  However, if you are in Scotland, you could always arrange an indoor picnic!  Unless the sun is shining or bravery wins, of course.  Spending time together and taking a moment out of the day to live life on purpose is essential to well-being.  And it is a great way to say thank you to the important men in your life.

eteaket gift ideas for Dad..

If you are struggling to find the perfect gift for dad, here are a few recommendations to help you out:

• Tomatin Whisky Tea – We think dad would love our Tomatin Whisky Tea!  It is the first barrel aged Whisky Tea in Europe.  We’ve blended three black teas from Assam, Ceylon and Fujian.  We then added a little natural bergamot flavour and a sprinkle of cornflowers. As for the magic bit… We’ve worked with the Tomatin Distillery in the heart of the Scottish Highlands to suspend our blend in their whisky barrels. By letting the tea leaves age in this way, the leaves naturally pick up the complex smoky, fruity flavors of the whisky barrel without overwhelming the character of the tea leaves themselves.

  

• Lemon Libertea / Brew Toon – Treat dad to a new favourite tipple.  Brew Toon have created a citrus pale ale that has been brewed with zest and tea leaves to create a refreshing summer beer that is reminiscent of a lemon iced tea.  Light and sessionable, they brewed this beer using lemon grass & earl grey tea that was sourced from us!
• A day trip to Archerfield –  A gorgeous location and a great excuse to spend some time together on Fathers Day.  Explore the grounds, have lunch in the restaurant and even stay the night!  And while you are there, they have a wonderful selection of our teas to sit back, relax and spend time over.
• Isle of Harris Gin – Is Dad a gin fan?  The award winning Isle of Harris Gin is sure to wow!  Distilled in Tarbert in the Outer-Hebrides, the 9 botanicals used, capture the maritime influences.  Order your bottle on their website and pick it up straight away from our Retail Store (111 Rose Street) via their click and collect service!
