A New Chapter for Your Favorite Blends
After 25 wonderful years, Bill and I have retired from the retail side of tea to focus on sharing our vast knowledge about the World of Tea.
After closing our shop, we wanted to ensure our signature blends lived on. Crest Hill Tea Room in The Plains, VA was selected as the official home of The Larkin Collection.
Matthew and Laura McCleland share our passion for quality and will produce our signature blends and proprietary recipes with the same care you’ve come to expect. Contact cresthilltearoom.com
Our website is currently under construction as we transition back to lecturing and creating tea events. In the meantime, follow us on Facebook for news, recipes and blog posts.
