Good to see this thread alive again after it started some three years
ago! In the meantime the two co-owners split up their partnership and
the Wadmalaw plantation went fallow for a season (2002), with bushes
and weeds growing wild. This year, former co-owner Bill Hall and
Bigelow Tea successfully acquired the plantation and the business and
rehabilitation commenced.

You mean Bill Hall and mack Fleming split up? I got some information
through one of my business collogue ( not tea related) from NC that
This tea suppose to be available from summer 2003. Are you using the
pakistani company "Tapal" for re-exporting to Hawaii?

Happy to say that the new owners are using Teacraft consultancy for
technical input on getting their bushes back into shape - using some
of the marginal tea area husbandry that we developed in Pakistan (see
this thread message No. 2). Some of the unique Charleston tea has
been manufactured again this year.

I heard your company name before but didn't know you are Biigelow's
official consultancy firm. I am writing a book about tea. may i
contact you privately for some furthure information? Thank you very
much for your resourceful post.
