Mazawattee was plucked from, it's exotic blend of the Hindi word 'Maza' meaning pleasure and the Sinhalese word 'Wattee' meaning garden to describe the lush growing tea plantations.

By 1898, Mazawattee became the largest tea company in the world. Mazawattee signs became the most important and advertised brand in England for 50 years.

In the early 1900s, a carriage drawn by zebras instead of horses were used to promote Mazawattee Tea on London roads to symbolise the exotic nature of tea.

For many, this once iconic advertisement of a grandmother sipping tea with her granddaughter was nothing but a reminder of times gone

For all those serious Mazawattee tin collectors!!
