Organic English Breakfast Black Tea (Loose Leaf)

The loose-leaf version of our serious English Breakfast: organic South Indian black tea, full-bodied and bracing, with a hint of bittersweet cocoa underneath. The strongest imaginable cup of breakfast tea, in whole-leaf form for tea-pot brewing.

Organic · Vegan · Non-GMO · Sugar-Free · Gluten-Free · All-Natural · High Caffeine

Why we like it

• Single-origin organic black tea from South India, no commodity blending or filler
• Bold and tannic in the traditional English style; takes milk and sugar without going flat
• Whole-leaf form lets the tea unfurl freely; reinfuses 1-2 times with a slightly different cup each steep

Details

• Maker: August Uncommon Tea
• Origin: South India
• Size: 50g (15 cups) or 250g (70 cups)
• Best for: mornings with a teapot, anyone who finds most English Breakfast too mild, slow weekends

How to enjoy

Hot: 212°F water, 3.5g (about 2 teaspoons) of leaves per 10oz, steep 4-5 minutes. Reinfuses 1-2 times. A splash of milk softens the tannins beautifully and brings out the cocoa note. Iced: brew the same way with just 3oz of hot water, then dilute with 7oz cold water and pour over ice.
