Even though it's a promotional infographics, it higlights some interesting connections and is pretty well made with regards to condensing and presenting the information.
The parts on the % of population drinking tea and the difference between younger and older people, and the part with consumption per capita convey the information really effectively.
All in all upvoted not for the content, but for the presentation that I have learned something from.
Thanks - I understand your points, it's promotional and the content is not super-interesting if you're not into tea, or not British maybe, but I'm glad you like the presentation anyway. That's about 3 days work in there :)
Yep, it was 'homemade' - in brief, I first made a list of the facts that I want to show (eg. amount of tea imported), then did about 2 days of research. Then I used photoshop, and traced outlines of images found from images.google.com.
If you want a full version, I'll happily write a slightly longer how-to type thing?
The mechanics of making the vector images is already well covered by other good photoshop guides (linked in the blog post) but the general steps I went through are here. Hope it's helpful for you.

Care to share something about it? What did you use to create it? What was the process like?
