English Breakfast Tea is a gourmet black Northern Indian tea. You will find it to have a full body and to be a rich robust cup.
This tea is expected to be served with milk and a sweetener much like the British have prepared their morning tea for over a century. Once the black tea has been mixed with milk, its aroma magically changes to a very familiar scent of warm toast and honey! Famous for their morning "fry-ups" the Englishman's breakfast can consist of some pretty greasy food items such as bacon, sausage, and eggs. The tea that they drank needed to be rich enough to keep up with these other strong flavored items. English breakfast tea was perfect for this fare.
When enjoyed with milk and sugar, the silky texture, although still very stimulating, then takes on a much more mild flavor, perfect for toast, muffins and biscuits. Although it is of course a custom to have black tea blends every morning in England, the term "English breakfast tea" did not originate in England, but instead the term originated in North America in the colonial times.
This tea, known as English breakfast tea is highly admired all over the world. Celebrated for its bold flavor, this gourmet tea is one of our best selling and sure to win you over.
