AS SUPPLIED TO THE ROYAL TABLE.
CAPTAIN PIDDING'S HOWQUA'S MIXTURE
TEA is an admixture of 40 rare Black Teas, produced.
on as many different plantations, each Tea differing from
the rest, and possessing a flavour, a fragrance, or strengths
peculiar to itself. Blended together in the proper pro'
portions, they comprise all that is desirable in Tea. ThiS
discovery was not the effect of chance, but of many great_
advantages united in one individual, and the result 0f
numerous experiments and the most minute analysis"
For another to produce the same result, he must possess
equal skill, the same discriminating taste, equal power of
procuring the forty various Teas required, and know the
exact proportions of each kind used—and though he mat
never once have visited China, he must have had eV'
opportunities of securing to himself, its productions
with one who, like Captain Pidding, has spent years there
in acquiring these advantages, and to whom alone Hof;
qua—years before his death—imparted at Canton, t"
secret of compounding his Mixture.
Yet there are upwards of 500 retailers pretending to geld
tea, they call " Howqua's Mixture"—each mixture dl'
faring from all the others. Now as there can be but elo
/.
REAL " Hnwqua's Mixture," it follows that, as 500,1418
ferent medleys are offered-499 must be spurious.
499 counterfeits are so many evidences of the superiorose
of the ONE GENUINE. And it would be absurd to sugeht
that Captain Pidding, with advantages, the result of Pitat
Voyages made to China, and five years spent in to
country, would be so silly—even were it possible---asbo
yield them up to 500 others, or impart to them so value
a secret. vie;
The very great celebrity this Tea has acquired, ha or
tempted many unprincipled persons to give similar, to
nearly similar titles to their own spurious mixtures' to
guard against such imposition, purchasers should obse
