Emperor's Breakfast
Emperor's Breakfast tea is a black Chine tea originating in the Ming Dynasty.
Delicately twisted whole leaves and golden buds create a powerful breakfast tea . But careful crafting rather than mass production allows the leaves to retain a unique depth of flavour and complexity. Wonderfully comforting malty notes and delicious caramel flavours are revealed.
Emperor's Breakfast is the antithesis of modern, industrially produced blends . This single estate tea is carefully grown, harvested and prepared to be the perfect breakfast tea without the need for ANY blending. The tea contains both softness and strength without the need for the commercial blender's contrivance.
Of course, in time honoured tradition, you are more than welcome to blend our teas at home. Before the advent of tea-bags containing their sealed contents of up to 60 teas we blended our teas at home straight into the pot to our personal preferences. We recommend adding a spoon of Hand-made black Malawi if you're feeling adventurous.
Using 1g per cup, each tin makes
25 cups or 12 pots of tea for two - 26p a cup.
These whole leaves can be re-infused.
