Jacksons of Piccadilly

Defunct London tea house, tea wholesaler and retailer

Jacksons of Piccadilly was a London, England tea house, tea wholesaler and retailer, grocer, wine merchant, and deluxe department store, founded by Robert Jackson in Piccadilly in 1700. It is now a brand owned by R. Twinings and Company Limited, a former tea business rival. By 1815, Jacksons had earned a reputation for selling pre-blended teas direct to customers, which was uncommon at that time because people blended different teas themselves at home.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
