This loose leaf English breakfast tea is a tea with a long pedigree. It dates from the 19th century, when black tea was blended in Scotland by a tea master named Drysdale. Our English breakfast is a select blend of teas from Assam and carefully chosen high grown tea from Kerala. These teas create a premium-quality taste experience. This is English Breakfast tea as it should be - strong, malty and the perfect start to the day. Best when served lightly sweetened with a dash of milk or cream.

Review for Our English Breakfast Tea

Don't just take our own word for it about the stunning flavour of our English Breakfast tea blend - as our review below shows, it's a tea our customers genuinely respond to - and in terms of quality, a cut above the rest!

Beautiful teas! A great selection and friendly, knowledgeable owners. The English Breakfast tea is a really nice change when I want to switch up my usual Yorkshire Tea morning cuppa. So many supposedly "quality" English Breakfast teas just taste like dishwater. Not this one! Smooth with a little bite of smoky-maltiness. Also the Earl Grey is one of the best I've ever tried, as well as the Fine China Jasmine, which has no bitterness - just a really pleasant, clean cup.

A top notch tea for all occassions.

Good flavour. I always buy this tea as it is an excellent flavour for use every day/ It also mixes well with other tea (e.g. a good Darjelling) to produce even more flavours. Highly recommended.
