This full-bodied blend delivers a rich, satisfying flavour with distinctive earthy undertones that tea enthusiasts have cherished for generations.

Premium Organic Black Tea

Crafted from carefully selected Camellia sinensis leaves sourced from India’s renowned tea-growing regions, this English Breakfast tea represents the pinnacle of organic tea production. Each batch is certified organic, ensuring you’re enjoying tea that’s been grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, and processed with respect for both the environment and traditional tea-making methods.

The loose-leaf format preserves the tea’s natural oils and complex flavour profile, offering a superior brewing experience compared to tea bags. When steeped, the leaves unfurl to release their full spectrum of flavours, creating a robust cup that’s perfect for morning enjoyment or any time you need a comforting, energising beverage.

How to Brew the Perfect Cup

Brewing exceptional English Breakfast tea is simple when you follow these traditional methods. Add approximately one teaspoon (2.5 g) of loose tea leaves to your cup or teapot. Pour freshly boiled water at 100°C over the leaves and allow them to steep for 2-4 minutes, depending on your preferred strength. For a lighter, more delicate cup, steep for 2 minutes; for a bolder, more robust flavour, extend the steeping time to 4 minutes.

This versatile tea can be enjoyed in multiple ways to suit your taste preferences. Many people prefer their English Breakfast with a splash of milk, which complements the tea’s full-bodied character and creates a smooth, creamy beverage. Alternatively, add a slice of fresh lemon for a brighter, more citrus-forward cup that highlights the tea’s natural complexity.

The English Breakfast Tradition

English Breakfast tea has been a cornerstone of British tea culture for centuries, traditionally enjoyed as a morning beverage to accompany breakfast. Its robust character and satisfying depth make it substantial enough to pair with hearty morning meals, yet refined enough to be savoured on its own. The full-bodied nature of this black tea comes from the careful selection and processing of Camellia sinensis leaves, which are fully oxidised to develop their characteristic dark colour and rich flavour profile.

About Your Tea

Black tea naturally contains caffeine, which contributes to its energising qualities. It’s worth noting that caffeine intake of more than 200 mg daily is not recommended during pregnancy or lactation. For reference, a cup of instant coffee contains approximately 80 mg of caffeine, while a cup of black tea typically contains less. This information allows you to make informed choices about your daily caffeine consumption.
