“Treat this one as a green. It’s the only way! If you don’t it will end up really overdone and bitter. Treated as a green, it’s pretty good. Not my favourite, but drinkable.” Read full tasting note
“Go Canucks! Kick Buffalo’s ass! :P I’m afraid I’m not having a very ‘hockey-suitable’ tea, though. The smell of this tea is an odd mix between the typical ‘tea’ smell and a soft jasmine...” Read full tasting note

Description

Named after the famous No. 10 Downing Street, this sweet green and black tea blend is lightly aromatic with a mild and soft, smooth flavour. A Murchie’s favourite for over 100 years.

John Murchie’s unconventional tea blending ideas resulted in one of Murchie’s most famous blends, one that has been a best seller for decades. Murchie’s No. 10 Blend is a mild, sweet combination of gunpowder and jasmine greens, with Keemun and Ceylon black teas, perfect for any time of day. Lightly aromatic with a soft, smooth flavour, that goes great with an afternoon scone topped with Murchie’s Lemon Curd.

Our No. 10 Blend was selected in 1996 as the best beverage out of over 300 products sampled at the Canadian Association of Specialty Food.

Ingredients: Black tea (Keemun, Ceylon), Green tea (Gunpowder, Jasmine), bergamot oil
