WILLIAMSBURG , Va., Oct. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- WILLIAMSBURG brand today announced a collaboration with master tea blenders Harney & Sons Fine Teas to debut the Holiday Heritage blend for the 2021 holiday season.

The brand collaborates with more than 30 companies to offer well-crafted, quality products rooted in antique influences. The partnership with Harney & Sons continues this tradition, with the tea company offering over 300 varieties of the highest quality teas sourced from the finest tea regions in the world.
"There's no place like Colonial Williamsburg for the holidays, and the Holiday Heritage blend evokes the spirit of a visit with historic charm, botanical wreaths, candles and firelight, and a warm welcome to all who visit," says Kiri Franco, director, brand and licensing, WILLIAMSBURG brand. "Holiday Heritage is an ideal collaboration for WILLIAMSBURG and Harney & Sons since both are focused on tradition with a fresh design; a new blend."
"We are excited to create this new everlasting partnership with The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation for a special edition blend that will perfectly fit into our Harney & Sons portfolio while honoring the deep history and traditions of Colonial Williamsburg," Paul Harney, Vice President of Harney & Sons.
