In 1776, as the capital of the State of South Carolina, Charleston helped define a pivotal year. That spring, the state adopted its own constitution. On June 28, patriot forces secured a major victory at Sullivan’s Island. On August 5, the Declaration of Independence was first publicly read in South Carolina in Charleston.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2007\" data-end=\"2501\"\u003eInside the tin is our East Indian tea, a brisk, malty black tea that connects naturally to Charleston’s own tea history. In the years leading up to the Revolution, Charlestonians repeatedly resisted taxed East India Company tea. In December 1773, 257 chests of tea aboard the London were refused and left unclaimed. In November 1774, seven chests of “East India” tea aboard the Britannia were destroyed and cast into the Cooper River, becoming part of Charleston’s own tea protest story.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients: \u003c\/strong\u003eAssam Black Tea, Orange Pekoe\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\/ Type: \u003c\/strong\u003e20 pyramid style teabags sealed in \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eblack\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ecommemorative tea tin\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan size=\"2\" face=\"trebuchet ms, geneva\" style=\"font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;\"\u003e*Teabag material is a non-GMO, all natural (no glue or plastics), plant-based product that is fully biodegradable.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShelf Life:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 Years\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eHand Packaged by Oliver Pluff \u0026amp; Co. in Charleston, South Carolina\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oliver Pluff \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48273779359969,"sku":"N-3351","price":16.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0488\/2710\/5441\/files\/charles_town_tea_teabags_front.png?v=1779820290","url":"https:\/\/oliverpluff.com\/products\/charles-towne-tea-charleston-250th-anniversary-commemorative-teabags-tin","provider":"Oliver Pluff \u0026 Co","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
