Tea Samples

The Irish tea culture
On average, the Irish drink four cups of tea a day. With a per capita consumption of 4.6 kilos per year, not even the British can keep up. But where does this ambition for such high tea consumption come from?
Some people may suspect that tea is so popular in Ireland because of the weather. Because what could be better than warming up with a cup in a cosy cottage on a rainy day. But tea has a much higher value in Ireland. Thus it shapes whole traditions. In Ireland, drinking tea is associated with conviviality. For many Irish people, it is also good manners to offer their visitors a cup of tea. It can also be strangers who only ask for directions. So don't be surprised next time you are invited to tea in Ireland.
