the perfect pairing

Stock Exchange Hotel and Tender restaurant are proud to partner with PMD Teas, providing an exceptional and unique tea drinking experience for our guests, with the choice of twelve exquisite teas, each carefully selected to complement the experience.

P.M. David Silva & Sons, established in 1945 during the plantation Raj in Ceylon’s world famous Dimbula Valley, offers more than just a beverage; they provide a genuine flavour experience. In a market increasingly drawn to the subtleties of single-origin foods, PMD teas presents remarkable single estate and single batch teas, harvested seasonally at their peak. They understand that today's consumers seek more than a standard teabag, desiring a naturally fragrant and flavourful cup of quality tea.

We are very excited to have our very own special blend; STOCK EXCHANGE BLEND “1906”

The specially created Stock Exchange Blend “1906” stands as a testament to tea’s rich history. This distinctive tea is made solely from seedling tea bushes planted around the turn of the last century—bushes now over 100 years old. By exclusively using these aged bushes, the teas aims to recreate the unique tea avors enjoyed in 1906 by those working and living in the stock exchange and across manchester. This blend offers a special opportunity to experience a taste of the past, a tangible connection to a previous era.
