Synopsis

The internationally renowned Fortnum & Mason store in Piccadilly, London, is synonymous with style, elegance, English charm and, above all, that most traditional of pastimes: tea-drinking.

The book also includes over 45 recipes for all types of teatime delight, from delicate sandwiches, rose biscuits and lemon curd meringues to sumptuous teabreads, brownies and cupcakes, as well as guiding the reader through the best types of tea to accompany them.

Beautifully illustrated with full-colour photography throughout, this charming book is a must-have for tea drinkers everywhere.
