A classic English Breakfast built on Assam rather than on filler: bold enough to wake you up, smooth enough to drink at four in the afternoon. It takes milk and sugar without losing its backbone, which is the whole point of a breakfast blend, and it is equally good black with a slice of lemon.
Tasting notes.
Rich and smooth at medium strength, with a bright amber liquor and no harsh tannic edge.
How to brew?
Steep one bag in 200 ml of freshly boiled water for three to four minutes. Add milk and sweeten if you wish. A longer steep gives strength without bitterness.
What is inside. A blend of selected black teas, Assam led. No added flavouring. [Confirm the blend declaration against pack artwork.]
The tea bag. Staple-free and microwave safe, with each tea bag individually enveloped to protect the aroma.
QUESTIONS ANSWERED
How is this different from your Assam tea bags? The Assam is a single-origin CTC built for strong milk chai. English Breakfast is a blend — smoother, rounder, and designed to be drunk through the day.
Can it be drunk without milk? Yes. Three minutes without milk gives a clean, bright cup.
