Afternoon tea in the Gallery of Adare Manor feels like stepping back in time. An extensive selection of first-flush and specially blended teas from around the world—including the manor’s own signature blend, 1832—complement a three-course extravaganza of dainty sandwiches (followed by a palate cleanser of African Solstice tea and cranberry juice), scones served with made-daily lemon curd, and a grand finale of Champagne and artful miniature pastries. It’s all served on stunning white-and-baby blue–striped Bernardaud porcelain china created exclusively for the manor.
