I looked in my email archive and discovered that I have been ordering tea from Strand since 2010! Those many years ago, online ordering was very limited in Canada. Jack has always been very kind and accommodating to me, by taking my orders and finding various shipping options for me to get my tea to Canada, at a time when that was all less straightforward to do than it is now. We've even had a few lovely chats over the years. I have always been so impressed with the variety and quality of all of the products, and the ability to purchase small quantities which allows me to select more variety, and sample so many of the lovely offerings. It was through Strand that I discovered so many teas that I now love, and I remain loyal to Strand Tea. The first time I tried Canadian Friendship was when I received a sample of it with my order, and I was charmed by the name, as well as by the taste. It is an excellent tea.
