Goodreads
In the first novel in Winston Graham’s hit series, a weary Ross Poldark returns to England from the American War of Independence (1783), looking forward to a joyful homecoming with his beloved Elizabeth. But instead he discovers his father has died, his home is overrun by livestock and drunken servants, and Elizabeth—believing Ross to be dead—is now engaged to his cousin. Ross has no choice but to start his life anew.
Thus begins the Poldark series, a heartwarming, gripping saga set in the windswept landscape of Cornwall. With an unforgettable cast of characters that spans loves, lives, and generations, this extraordinary masterwork from Winston Graham is a story you will never forget.
The Tea
Metropolitan English Breakfast Tea English Breakfast gets the luxury treatment in this incredible full-leaf blend of Indian, Tanzanian, Kenyan and Chinese teas. We don’t mean to brag, but your customers will never go back to run-of-the-mill English Breakfast after tasting our version. (Neither will you.) Simply outstanding.
The Assessment
Ross Poldark does not strike me as a tea drinker, I feel like strong coffee or rum is more his jam. I could see Elizabeth drinking this while she pines over Ross, and really who can blame her?
