On December 16th, 1773, Colonial Patriots disguised as Indians boarded three English ships in Boston Harbor and threw the tea that was onboard into the water in protest against the duty imposed by King George III. Did you know that three months later on March 7, 1774, there was a second Boston Tea Party? On this day 16 chests of fine tea from the Davison Newman & Co. were dumped in the harbor. Davison Newman & Co. is the distributor of this fine blend of Darjeeling, India and Sri Lanka. This box of tea contains 25 teabags.
