A blend of Ceylon and Keemun black teas with the delicious flavour of ripe apricots, which emphasizes the natural fruit notes in the smooth base teas.
Calendula and elder flower petals add beauty to the fragrant brew, making for a tea that is as pretty as it is delicious.
Originally blended: 1970’s
The sweet flavour of apricots blended with Ceylon and Keemun black teas makes for a sweet, mellow cup.
Keemun is produced in the Qimen County of Huangshan City, in Anhui province of China. It was first produced in 1875 and quickly gained popularity in England, and became the most prominent ingredient of the English Breakfast tea blend.
Ceylon tea is grown in Sri Lanka, an island off of the southern coast of India. The country Sri Lanka was called Ceylon until 1972 and although the name of the country changed at this time, the name Ceylon was kept for tea.
Tea Bag Ingredients: Black tea (Ceylon, Keemun), natural and artificial flavouring
Loose Tea Ingredients: Black tea (Ceylon, Keemun), elderflower petals, calendula petals, natural and artificial flavouring
