Great Brew any time of day

We drink this tea without milk, and find it just right for any time of day, but not usually with 'breakfast'!! I found 'The Proper Tea Co' via Google as I was looking for somewhere that I could purchase a 'proper' loose tea that you can actually see the 'tea leaves' and have never been disappointed with the various 'teas' that I have purchased from this company. Thank you

A STRONG BREW

Bought when my usually preferred blend was not available. 'Hastings Breakfast' produces a full flavoured and deep brown drink - as you might expect from its name!

What will you choose to go in yours?

  • Brewing Black Tea

    Use about 1 rounded teaspoon per cup (adjust according to taste).

    Add water that is around 100°C.

    Allow to brew for 3-5 mins (or as recommended on pack label) and be careful not to over brew.

  • Black tea is the tea most people think of when we say 'tea'. English Breakfast or some such tea that is very often enjoyed with milk or sugar. 

    Black tea starts its life just like green tea with leaves from a varietal of the Camellia Sinensis shrub but unlike green or white teas it goes through a process of oxidation that is when the leaf changes to the darker brown we all recognise and takes on those darker characteristics.
