What is English Breakfast Tea?
Despite its name, the first English Breakfast Tea was created in New York in the nineteenth century. An article in the trade magazine "Journal of Commerce" explains how Richard Davies, an English apothecary from Hull, founded a small tea company in New York and, in 1843, made a new mix of teas using China Congou, Flowery Pekoe, and Pouchong. He called it English Breakfast and sold it at 50 cents per pound. The public apparently loved it, and as demand grew, other retailers created their own version of this now world-famous blend.
We use only robust Keemun tea from a single garden in Anhui Province (China) for our English Breakfast.
Also available in pyramid sachets.
Perfect!
Very good tea leaves gathered for this tea! The taste is refreshing, substantial, and without bitterness. Perfect!
Lightly smoky Keemun breakfast tea. Consistent quality across batches -- we've ordered several bags of this and drink it just about every morning. This is excellent breakfast tea with a medium body and a distinctive flavor. Wouldn't be good for iced tea, but it's excellent value for hot tea.
Good flavor. A little goes a long way.
It makes a delicious cup of Chinese black tea. What more can I say?
