The Voyages of Admiral Grey – Book Two
$7.62 CADThe Voyages continue! Admiral John Grey's adventures continue as he rounds the Cape Horn and sails onto the exotic Kingdom of Hawai'i. Strange things are happening in that island paradise, and the Admiral's life is on the line as he pursues a powerful conspiracy that spans the gates of time itself! Many of you will know Admiral Grey and the associated teas that Tea Trader supplies. The original tea was launched in 1995 and Eight Bells, Taeping and Cedarberg Sunrise followed. At that time, we put a story behind this character and this was carried further by one of our earliest customers, Bob Newell. We talked with him over the years about a more complete story built around this character. We are now happy to announce the further chronicling of his adventures as told by Bob himself! www.admiralgrey.comAdd to cart -

Eight Bells
$14.00 CAD for 125gAdmiral Grey's afternoon favourite combining Earl Grey, vanilla and a hint of passion fruit. How better to end the watch? Unlike civil clock bells, the strikes of a ship's bell do not accord to the number of the hour. Instead, there are eight bells, one for each half-hour of a four-hour watch. In the age of sailing, watches were timed with a 30-minute hourglass. Bells would be struck every time the glass was turned, and in a pattern of pairs for easier counting, with any odd bells at the end of the sequence.Select options -
