Description

A traditional, strong, loose leaf English Breakfast, the blend reformulated for us by Rare Tea Hunter Phil Mumby. A small-leaf, high-quality Assam tea from the Hajua garden blending with two stunning teas from Kenya from the Kaimosi™ estate and Kapchorua™ estate, plus a small proportion of China’s traditional Yunnan Dian Hong to give it the Canton Tea Co twist. It’s smooth, brisk, fresh, robust – exactly what a traditional EB should be.
