400ml is perfect for 5g of loose leaf tea. If you're using a tea bag, 300ml is bang on. Brewing this one is all about finding just how you like it. Try brewing for 3-4 minutes black, or 4-5 minutes with milk.

Brewing Tip

Your tea will start tasting bitter if it’s left to brew for too long so if you fancy a stronger cup, add some more tea leaves.

    A classic brew

    The malty depth of flavour with this tea is incredible. It needs a good 3 to 5 minutes brewing for the flavours to develop fully. If you’re used to standard supermarket tea you will be in for a pleasant surprise! A flavour to savour.

    Breakfast sunshine

    I take mine without milk and add a slice of lemon - it’s lovely chilled in the summer too.
