Norfolk Tea Co. - Sandringham Time Loose Leaf Tea

Take 30 minutes out to enjoy a well-balanced, refreshing cup of tea that can be sipped at any time of the day!  ☕✨

The Sandringham Time concept was introduced by King Edward VII at his Norfolk estate, where he set the clocks 30 minutes ahead of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). This became the official time on the estate from 1901 to 1936. The unique timekeeping was thought to better suit the royal family's lifestyle, encouraging them to get more out of their day.

Today, this idea has been revived with the "Sandringham Time" tea. Encouraging people to take 30 minutes out of their day—just like the King did—to enjoy a peaceful, traditional cup of tea. It’s a charming way to encourage a break from the fast pace of life, savouring a moment of calm and reflection.
