Oliver Pluff & Co.; Tea with a tale to tell.

Wondering what teas were thrown into Boston Harbor the night of the Boston Tea Party? This colonial green tea, Young Hyson, was one of them!

Named for tea merchant Philip Hyson, Young Hyuson was imported to colonial America by the British East India Company. Young Hyson tea was highly prized and the tea tax was higher for Hyson than for other teas. It is created from green tea leaves, picked in Spring, then thinly rolled to have a long, twisted appearance that unfurls when brewed.  

Pictured on the tea tin is the tea act Tax Stamp of King George III as a nod to the tea's revolutionary history.

Notes: Fresh, grassy notes with a delicate, natural sweetness. Young Hyson (picked in spring) is considered a higher quality tea than Hyson (picked after the rains). 

History: Some believe it to have been named after an English tea merchant, Phillip Hyson.  Hyson and Young Hyson tea were highly prized by the colonial Americans and tax on hyson was higher than for other teas.  During the Boston Tea Party there were 70 chests of Hyson destroyed.  

Ingredients: Green tea leaves

Size/Type: 3.5 oz loose tea, sealed in matte black signature tea tin

Shelf Life: 3 Years

Hand Packaged by Oliver Pluff & Co. in Charleston, South Carolina

A note from the Team at Oliver Pluff & Co.:

We are more than purveyors of tea—we are storytellers. Each blend we offer is a chapter in a larger tale: of trade routes and revolution, of distant tea gardens and colonial American hearths.

Our journey began with a simple question: What teas were thrown into Boston Harbor during the Tea Party of 1773? That inquiry led us deep into the records of the British East India Company and the bustling tea markets of Canton, China where we uncovered the names of the original blends (Bohea, Congou, Singlo, and more) and traced their journey from leaf to rebellion.

We’ve recreated these historic blends with care and fidelity, allowing you to sip the same teas that helped spark a revolution. When you raise a cup of Young Hyson or Bohea, you’re not just tasting tea—you’re tasting history.

Every Oliver Pluff & Co. blend invites you to slow down, steep deeply, and savor the story in every cup.

First, the sizing is absolutely perfect for these projects. Instead of wasting large sheets and having to cut them down, these pre-cut sizes save a ton of time and effort — and most importantly, reduce paper waste. The quality of A-Sub paper has always been excellent: it holds vibrant colors beautifully, releases ink consistently, and produces crisp, sharp designs. Both of these sizes continue that tradition. I’ve noticed my images transfer smoothly and evenly every time, whether I'm working on ceramic mugs or glass tumblers. In terms of value, these smaller sheets are definitely worth the price. You get professional-quality results without using more paper than you need, which in the long run saves money and materials. Overall, I highly recommend these A-Sub sublimation papers for anyone looking to streamline their mug and tumbler production. They’re efficient, reliable, and a great investment for any sublimation business or hobbyist. - send me stuff to review.
