EARL GREY WITH BERGAMOT (EXTRA FANCY) - This traditional Earl Grey Tea is made from superior Ceylon and Assam black teas, scented with the elegant fragrance of bergamot, and decorated with blue cornflowers. Superior black tea leaves combine with natural Bergamot oil to produce a lively taste–sweet and citrusy! When brewed, this tea produces a bright coppery-colored liquid with a piquant refreshing taste.
ENGLISH BREAKFAST TEA - This classic blend of Sri Lanka Ceylon tea is traditionally served in the morning, during breakfast. Born from a grande tradition, this tea produces a bright, full-bodied amber liquor--finishing with an expected refreshing, and invigorating aroma! English Breakfast has been noted by tea connoisseurs as having a slightly tangy character that is reminiscent of quality champagne.
AFTERNOON ENGLISH TEA - Teatime, a great English tradition, became popular with the Brits in the mid 1800's when tea arrived from China along with the elegant rituals of tea. The custom of teatime, usually observed from 4 to 5 pm, became synonymous with gentility when Queen Victoria and her court adopted the tradition. This unique, savory mixture of Dimbula Black Tea, Darjeeling Black Tea, and Chinese White Monkey Paw Green Tea, has been savored in the British Isles for over 200 years–pouring a bright, light-bodied infusion, full of muscatel flavors!
RUSSIAN CARAVAN BLEND - Historically, the Russian Caravan Tea was one of the most important drinks in Russia–second only to vodka! During the Czar's reign, a chest of tea would travel on camelback from China to Moscow–famously prizing this tea for its smoky aroma acquired and absorbed from the campfires along its journey. The modernized Russian Caravan Blend is an accumulation of Lapsang Souchong with Assam Black Tea–producing a medium-strong brew that possesses a full-smoky aroma, with a hint of malty undertones!
WELSH BREAKFAST BLEND - This tea blend makes its debut featuring golden tip Orange Pekoe leaves, infused with quality tea leaves home to India and China. This tea surpasses English Breakfast with its lingering aroma, and sweet flavor. Welsh Breakfast is a unique cup, prized for its thick fruit-like character, and stout unrivaled smoothness!
PRINCE OF WALES BLACK TEA - The Prince of Wales Tea is a complex blend of Black Assam, Black Ceylon, Gunpowder Green Tea, Lucky Dragon Hyson Green Tea, and natural black current flavors. When brewed, this old-world concoction produces a golden-reddish liquor with a smooth black current flavor. Surely fit for a king!
IRISH CELTIC BREAKFAST BLEND - This rich and hearty "Top of the Morning Blend," is made from the malty leaves of Black Assam, coupled with smooth and striking Nilgiri Tea leaves–producing a more pungent and bolder brew than English Breakfast, or Afternoon English Tea. Irish Celtic Blend brews a malty, sweetly dry flavored cup!
SCOTTISH BREAKFAST BLEND - This countryside blend combines hearty Indian teas with the pungent smokiness of Lapsang Souchong–producing a rugged Scottish Breakfast brew with a wood-smoke aroma and warm hearths. Guaranteed to hold its own during a cold winter's day!
