Cliveden's expensive afternoon tea features on The Apprentice

The afternoon tea was launched by head chef Carlos Martinez.

The world's most expensive afternoon tea at Cliveden starred in The Apprentice on Wednesday.

Winners on this week's BBC TV episode were rewarded with a trip to the exclusive hotel in Taplow, where they were treated to luxury scones and sandwiches.

The hotel, which was bought by billionaires Ian and Richard Livingstone for £30m in February, launched its pricey afternoon tea at a whopping £550 per couple in April last year.

It includes white truffles at £2,250 per kilogram, Beluga caviar at £4,000 per kilogram, and Da Hong Pao Tea - which is harvested from one-thousand-year-old plants.
