English Breakfast Tea is the quintessential black tea blend. As with many blends, its origins aren't entirely clear - but it's thought to date back to the late 18th century and often features teas from both India and Africa.
Flavour
There’s no standard recipe, but over the centuries, tea lovers have come to seek a certain flavour profile from this iconic blend: strength and maltiness to stand up to lots of breakfast dishes, liveliness to wake you up, and a satisfying depth and balance.
We use a blend of Assam and African teas from tea estates we work closely with. The Assam teas give a powerful, malty depth, while the African teas – which include some fantastic teas from Kenya – give a vibrant and lively character.
Blended together to our unique recipe, it makes for a balanced cup that delivers consistently on strength, flavour, body and briskness. Typically enjoyed with milk, it’s a true all-rounder, great at breakfast and throughout the day, and delicious with marmalade on toast.
