Scottish Tea
Tea from Scotland? Caz Graham meets the woman growing Oolong in Ecclefechan.
Sun-kissed hillsides in India, China, Kenya and Sri Lanka may produce the bulk of the world's tea but Scottish tea drinkers now have the opportunity to sample a home-grown brew. In Dumfries and Galloway Angela Hurrell is defying the climactic odds to produce a single-leaf tea that's served at London's Dorchester Hotel.
Caz Graham helps with one of Britain's smallest harvests and meets Tam O'Braan the agronomist who first noticed that a hardy plant that thrives in the foothills of the Himalayas could find friendly soil in the Scottish glens.
