Frankly, I doubt the 16th Century dates. However, I'm always willing
to see strong evidence otherwise.

Whether, 16th or 17th century, how would that tea have varied from
this "19th Century English ladies' tea" of which you speak? It's
processing? the particular leaves or blend of leaves?	 Or the way
it was prepared in the home?
