We're sponsoring National Cricket Week again this year - and the event, which is run by the cricket charity Chance to Shine, will take place from June 18-22. To help get the message out, we took England Cricket’s all-time highest Test run scorer and former captain Alastair Cook to cricket-mad Rusthall Primary School, near Tunbridge Wells.
Traidcraft has published a report called ‘The Estate They’re In’, which calls for UK tea companies to trade in a more transparent way.
Tea is one of the most important sectors driving the economy in Assam. The tea from this region of Northeast India is known for its body, brightness and malty flavour - and it's a crucial part of our Yorkshire Tea blend. However, the large communities that are involved in tea in Assam face a number of deep-rooted challenges.
The tea break is, arguably, the tastiest and most exciting part of any cricket match. Last month we were beyond excited to host the first Yorkshire Tea Break outside of the UK, in the unlikely setting of Rwanda’s first proper cricket ground during its opening on Saturday 28th October.
We buy a lot of tea from Rwanda. In fact, we buy 10% of all the tea produced there, because Rwandan tea is a key ingredient for Yorkshire Gold, Yorkshire Tea and Yorkshire Tea for Hard Water.
There are few sights as majestic as the graceful arc of a teabag in flight. So we asked Yorkshire Tea fans to show us their bowling skills, in the hope of finding the best teabag bowlers in the world.
