Earl Grey Tea

Earl Grey is a classic black tea blend that is renowned for its distinctive flavor and aroma. This tea is infused with oil extracted from the rind of the bergamot orange, a fragrant citrus fruit that adds a refreshing twist to the traditional black tea. The origins of Earl Grey date back to the early 1800s when it was introduced in England. It was named after Charles Grey, the 2nd Earl Grey and British Prime Minister, who popularized this delightful blend. Enjoy it plain or with a splash of milk for a comforting cup.

English Breakfast Tea

English Breakfast is perhaps the most popular of all black tea blends, known for its rich and hearty flavor. This blend combines Assam, Ceylon, and Kenyan black teas, creating a robust cup that pairs beautifully with cream and sugar. Invented in 1843, English Breakfast was popularized by Queen Victoria and has since become a staple in English tea culture. It is the perfect choice for a morning boost or an afternoon pick-me-up.

Irish Breakfast Tea

Irish Breakfast tea is characterized by its strong and malty flavor, making it a favorite among tea drinkers in Ireland. This blend typically consists of Assam and Kenyan black teas, which are known for their boldness. Irish Breakfast is often enjoyed with milk, enhancing its rich flavor. The small round black tea grade used in this blend is a CTC (cut, torn, curled) black tea, which yields a stronger cup compared to larger leaf teas. It’s a perfect choice for those who enjoy a robust tea experience throughout the day.

Scottish Breakfast Tea

For those who prefer a stronger brew, Scottish Breakfast tea is the ideal choice. This blend is crafted to provide a hearty cup of warmth, especially suited for the damp and cold regions of northern Scotland. The blend is designed to compensate for Scotland's naturally soft water, which can dilute the flavor of tea. With hints of wood and smoke, Scottish Breakfast offers a unique taste experience that is best enjoyed with cream and sugar.

Darjeeling Tea

Darjeeling tea is often referred to as the 'Champagne of teas' due to its unique flavor profile and exquisite quality. Grown in the foothills of the Himalayas in northern India, Darjeeling tea yields a thin-bodied, light-colored infusion with a floral aroma and a musky spiciness sometimes described as 'muscatel.' The tea gardens in this region were established by the British East India Company in 1841, and the tea produced here is unlike any other in the world. Darjeeling is perfect for those who appreciate a delicate and nuanced tea experience.

The British Legacy Tea Collection is not just a selection of teas; it is a journey through the rich history and culture of British tea drinking. Each blend tells a story and offers a unique tasting experience that reflects the traditions of tea preparation and enjoyment. Whether you are hosting a tea party, enjoying a quiet moment alone, or looking for the perfect gift for a tea lover, this collection is sure to impress.
