HOW MUCH TEA?

The quintessential Ceylon leaf tea. This well-balanced, bright tea is a classic thirst-quenching tea. Large, bright, golden leaves give a full-bodied, refreshing tea to be enjoyed at any time of the day. Works well black or with a splash of milk.

Taste Notes : Big & Bright
Black Tea

Origin : Sri Lanka

Ingredients : Sri Lankan black tea

Brewing :  Use one teaspoon of loose leaf tea per cup and always use freshly boiled water. Allow to brew for 3-5 minutes according to taste, depending on your preference for strength. Enjoy with or without milk.

Details : These teas are grown in five different growing districts in Sri lanka. The high grown district districts are Dimbula, Nuwara Eliya, and Uva. Teas grown in these areas of 4000ft above sea level tend to be light and flavoursome. There are many different leaf grades in the tea world and they are graded according to leaf size. The O.P. Grade is an Orange Pekoe grade, a high quality thin, wiry leaf that is quite tightly rolled. These larger leaf grades tend to have more complex flavour profiles than their smaller graded cousins and typically can be enjoyed without milk.

Delivery Information : Order before 1pm for same day shipping with Royal Mail Tracked 48 service. Shipping is free for orders over £30 ( £3.50 below £30 ).

Delightful tea

This is a wonderfully flavoured tea for all times of day with a lovely flavour and perfect strength to enjoy morning or afternoon. Another great tea from
Tugboat.

My favourite morning tea

I have liked Orange Pekoe Tea for many decades, after discovering that when I was a small boy, we lived not far from where it is grown. It was when I began to buy Orange Pekoe loose leaf tea from Tugboat that I really began to love it. Tasty and distinctive but not in any way harsh or overpowering, it is my tea of choice every morning. Three cups of Orange Pekoe, then breakfast with Tugboat coffee. that's my routine.

Sublime

Excellent earthy, rich tea with a light and floral finish from the orange blossoms. I think this tea very warm and comforting, in the same way a good quality green tea can make you feel on a cold winter day. I would highly recommend trying this one.
