How to brew:
Tea: 1 teabag | Water temp: 100°C | Brewing Time: 4-5 minutes.
Method:
Begin by bringing filtered or freshly drawn cold water to a rolling boil to capture the body and full flavour of this classic breakfast blend. Use one teabag for every 200–260ml of water into your cup or teapot. Pour the boiling water over the bag, cover, and allow to infuse for an optimum time of 4 to 5 minutes. While the tea can be steeped for up to 7 minutes for a stronger taste, we recommend adding an extra bag rather than the steeping time to avoid bitterness.
Goes well with:
Milk, sugar or lemon.
Pro tip:
While it’s the ultimate breakfast tea, its balanced strength makes it a great "all-day" brew. If you’re catering for a group or stocking a guest room, these individually wrapped envelopes ensure every cup stays fresh and delivers that authentic West Country tea-room experience!
