It was so popular that the word bohea became the slang term for tea. The blend varied wildly, consisting of broken orange pekoe, pekoe, and souchong dumped in a pile and then sifted, typically the scrap tea of lower quality leaves, but was considered high quality by the colonists. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory:\u003c\/strong\u003e During the Boston Tea Party, 242 chests of Bohea were destroyed.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan face=\"trebuchet ms, geneva\" size=\"2\" style=\"font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eIngredients: \u003c\/b\u003eBlack Tea Leaves\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small; color: #000000; font-family: 'trebuchet ms',geneva;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize\/Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e  \u003cspan\u003e20 Pyramid style teabags sealed in matte black signature tea tin\u003cbr\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\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eShelf Life: \u003c\/strong\u003e3 Years\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: small;\"\u003eHand Blended and Packaged by Oliver Pluff \u0026amp; Co.
