Intended to go well with milk and sugar in typically English fashion, this variation of English Breakfast Tea is made from black Keemun tea from the Anhui Province of China. Not quite as strong as the Assam-based varieties of English breakfast black tea, this provides a more mild, traditional alternative to the trends of modern English Breakfast blending.


Keemun tea is a specialty of the Anhui province of China, and is relatively new to the tea world having made its debut in 1875. Before this, the province produced only green teas, but now has become famous for black keemun tea.

Water Temp: 210 F
Steep time: 3 minutes

English Breakfast is a very bold, excellent morning tea blend. Good caramel notes, strong "black tea" flavor.

Studies suggest that black tea assists in lowering cholesterol and is good for the heart.

Is also thought to promote healthy tea, skin and bones.
