Description

The blend

A truly smashing way to start the day. Our traditional breakfast blend has been uniquely created to give you a spring in your step throughout the day. Our Tea Kites really allow the individual leaves to infuse, providing beautifully consistent cups of tea day after day.

The taste

Delightfully bright and full of flavour, this is the perfect start to your day. A classic, everyday English breakfast tea, made using the finest Assam and Kenya tea leaves – You can’t go wrong!

The benefit

Black tea contains polyphenols, a type of antioxidant. Caffeine and an amino acid called L-theanine are also found in black tea, which is said can improve alertness and focus – even more than coffee!

The moment

The classic English breakfast tea, this is actually the perfect brew for anytime of day (not just breakfast!) and to improve any mood – if it’s a good one it will make you even happier! Wake up with this blend and enjoy it through the day.

The creation

Using traditional methods of blending and tasting, this tea has been carefully crafted by the Miles team, using Miles experTeas!

Based on the edge of Exmoor and on Somerset’s coastline, we take inspiration from our beautiful surroundings to create a cuppa that embodies a little escape, evoking memories of a holiday in the West Country, with each sip. Our attention to detail and experience ensures a consistent, flavourful tea that will see you constantly topping up your mug.

We are founding members of the Ethical Tea Partnership (ETP). The ETP is a not-for-profit organisation, which convenes tea companies, developing agencies, governmental and non-governmental organisations to improve the lives of communities within the tea sector. Each purchase directly helps to provide better living and working conditions for those working in the tea trade.

Ingredients

The tea

100% black tea.

Perfect Brew

Perfect Brew

Black tea is best made with water brought to a full boil and used immediately for the tea to release its full flavour (if you're using a teapot remember to warm the pot first). Use one teabag per person or one teaspoon of loose-leaf tea per person. 

Allow to brew for 3-5 minutes. If you like your tea strong add more tea, don't steep for longer as this will turn the flavours bitter.

Drink with milk, with lemon or on its own.

Perfect pack

Our English Breakfast blend is available in boxes of 15 of premium, plastic-free, pyramid shaped Tea Kites and boxes of 25 envelope teabags.

Perfect pair

We think almost any biscuit is perfect for dunking in to this blend, but personally we’d always choose a Rich Tea or a Digestive. However, the most obvious (and far more indulgent) pairing has got to be a scone with clotted cream and strawberry jam. Try your hand at making your own scones with our English Afternoon Tea Scone recipe.

Storage

Make sure you store your tea in an airtight container – a tin is better than plastic, or seal up the packaging it arrives in. Although tea feels dry, it contains 3 % moisture and oils that are essential to its flavour. If not properly stored these can evaporate. Keep your tea in a fairly cool, dry place, which is out of sunlight and try to keep away from any spices that could taint the flavour.
