Tea Blends

James Taylor Breakfast Blend
This rich Ceylon breakfast tea is a blend of black teas from Kandy, the tea growing region where James Taylor produced the first crop of Ceylon black tea back in the 1860s. The aroma is sweet and toasty with hints of raisin and citrus. The smooth, deep-amber cup is bright and lively with a full mouth feel and well-balanced flavor that hints of cocoa, citrus and a crisp evergreen nuance that lingers into the finish.

Richmond Park Blend
A mellow, whole-leaf blend of Keemun, Ceylon, and Darjeeling. An exceptional tea that is smooth enough for drinking plain, and sturdy enough to take milk or lemon.

East Frisian Sunday Tea
New lot arriving in late spring!A blend of whole-leaf Assam and genuine Bourbon vanilla. The combination makes a delightful afternoon blend.

Robert Fortune Blend 41 (Darjeeling-Yunnan)
Named after Robert Fortune who toured the tea producing regions in the 1840s under the auspices of the East India Company. Darjeeling adds a pleasing brightness; Yunnan lends a dark, honey colored liquor and delicately spicy overtones.

Darjeeling BOP Blend
