English Breakfast Tea

4.9
Rated 4.9 out of 5 stars
6,757 Reviews
The one that started it all. Our classic English Breakfast. It's exactly how a real cup of tea should taste. A perfectly balanced, malty classic. The tasty richness of Indian Assam coupled with a light, fresh Ceylon. Rolled Whole Leaves. No Dust.
Strong & Malty
Try our English Breakfast with a really good milk chocolate to really bring out the sweeter caramel notes.

As long as it’s unused and boxed you can send it back, but we recommend you to get in touch first to see if we can help. You’ll have to ship it back to us yourself, and we recommend using tracked delivery.

Make sure you write us a note with your details in the box so we know who it’s from. Once it arrives, we’ll get your refund or exchange sorted.

How To Brew

How to Brew

1 Scoop
100° Boiling Water
3-5 Minutes
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.

    Fantastic Stuff… I’m told

    Keeps my tea obsessed Wife and tea obsessed daughter happy and mostly content. So five stars from me, even though I never get offered one as your teapot only has enough for the two of them. Also… any chance of a tea cosy of sorts that will fit the pot?

    This made us laugh! 😄 Five stars despite never actually getting a cup is quite the endorsement. Thanks for this great review, Paul.
    And for the tea cosy to fit the pot, I’ll pass that one on to the team. Although perhaps a bigger teapot might be your more urgent requirement! 😉
    Cheers,
