In this connection it is intereat- Bank, 4 months' sight -2/– 1⁄4 ing to note that this special brand Credita, 4 months' of tea was created by Mr. sight Tong A-wol, an expert on tea Documentary 4 months' with 4 world-wide reputa- tion. He is the founder of the China Tex Co., of Shanghai, a branch of which, was recently opened in the Colony.
The popular Tong Tea is grown solely in the Keemun district of Anhui Province of China, which had long been famous for its bea because of its being free of tan- nin, and therefore it has a aweet and delicate flavour which is pecu- liar to it alone.
The China Toa Co., which owns
its own tea gardans in Keemun, has an up-to-date factory which is equipped with all the latest machinery necessary for the pro- paration and packing in small tins of its tea, which during the short length of time it had been on the local market, has already met with much favour.
