This, chemistry tells us, is due to THEINE, the stimulating and refreshing property in tea. Theine is found in quantity only in the bud and young tea leaves picked for the finest quality tea from gardens at an altitude of over 4000 feet. These leaves are delicately, richly, fragrant in flavour because the abundant aromatic volatile oil they contain releases the "bouquet or flavour we so enjoy. There is very little Theine in the leaves from gardens on the lower levels, and the oil becomes poor in quality and non-flav-our giving . . . Bell Tea comes only from high altitude gardens rich in refreshing Theine, rich in flavour, rich, too, in soluble mineral matter that is of real food and nerve value. Bell Tea has not varied in quality for over 30 years and costs you very little more. It is the cream of the tea plantation. Serve only Picked from Highest Altitudes therefore Highest in Quality
