How does English Blend taste?​

The taste of English Blend is a harmonious symphony of flavors and aromas. The Ceylon tea provides a fresh, citrusy undertone, while the Assam tea adds a rich, malty depth. Darjeeling Second Flush provides a subtle floral note and a hint of muscatel, resulting in a complex and balanced flavor that is both sweet and spicy.

Each sip of this delicious tea brings you a moment of pure pleasure and relaxation.

How strong is English Blend?​

English Blend is a versatile tea that adapts to your personal preference. If you like a lighter taste, brew the tea with water at 95-100 degrees Celsius for 2-3 minutes. For a stronger and more robust taste, let the tea steep for 4-5 minutes.

To get the most out of your English Blend, use 2 grams of tea per cup and add sugar, honey or milk to taste.

English Blend

English Blend is a carefully crafted blend of premium ingredients including Ceylon, Assam and Darjeeling Second Flush black teas. Each ingredient contributes to the unique taste experience that English Blend offers, so you can enjoy a delicious cup of tea with character and depth.

Originating from Sri Lanka, Ceylon tea is known for its fresh, citrusy flavor and bright color. Assam tea from India is loved for its rich, malty flavor and deep colour, while Darjeeling Second Flush, also from India, provides a subtle floral note and a hint of muscatel. The combination of these three high-quality black teas results in a versatile and flavorful blend that forms the perfect basis for a classic English Blend.

The history of English Breakfast Tea dates back to the early 19th century in England. While the exact origins of this popular tea are somewhat shrouded in mystery, it is widely believed that it originated as an alternative to the then-common breakfast beverages such as ale and wine. Tea was imported from the British colonies and provided a refreshing and energizing alternative.

The traditional English Breakfast Tea was originally a blend of various Chinese black teas, but over the years and changing trade routes, the composition evolved into a combination of teas from India and Sri Lanka, as we know them today.

The popularity of English Breakfast Tea quickly spread around the world and it became an established part of British tea culture. Today, English Breakfast Tea is enjoyed all over the world and appreciated for its rich flavor and energizing properties.

Our English Blend pays homage to the rich history and refined taste of the traditional English Breakfast Tea. With a carefully curated blend of the finest ingredients, this tea offers exceptional quality and an unforgettable taste experience that you will want to rediscover again and again.
