    The one that started it all. Our classic English Breakfast. It's exactly how a real cup of tea should taste. A perfectly balanced, malty classic. The tasty richness of Indian Assam coupled with a light, fresh Ceylon. Rolled Whole Leaves. No Dust.
    Strong & Malty

    How to Brew

    1 Scoop
    100° Boiling Water
    3-5 Minutes
    400ml is perfect for 5g of loose leaf tea. If you're using a tea bag, 300ml is bang on. Brewing this one is all about finding just how you like it. Try brewing for 3-4 minutes black, or 4-5 minutes with milk.

    Brewing Tip

    Your tea will start tasting bitter if it’s left to brew for too long so if you fancy a stronger cup, add some more tea leaves.
    Ingredients

    Ingredients

      English Breakfast Tea

      The smell of the dried rolled leaves when I opened the pack was superb and I was not let down when the hot water was added to make my brew, a gentle sniff over the top of the tea pot had my taste buds salivating in anticipation of that breakfast treat to come. The taste completely hit the spot, this is definately my go to flavour.

      Delicious

      I loved this tea so much on my trip to London that I bought a box after arriving back home to the states. It’s perfect.

      There is nothing better than a smooth black tea that's easy on the palate but still packed with flavour. We're so happy you're enjoying it Philippa!
