A good cup of tea is part of the London experience. So if you want to treat someone to a true taste of the capital, our Nostalgic Britain Tea Caddy is the perfect souvenir. It combines the iconic red, white and blue of the Union Jack flag with famous London sights, such as Big Ben and red double-decker buses. This deluxe, hinged caddy has a vintage look thanks to a crackle effect and gold embossing. It contains 20 bags of our classic English Breakfast blend, each teabag individually foil-wrapped to give a fresh, robust brew in every cup.
English Breakfast is one of the jewels in the British tea crown. Bold, satisfying and deliciously smooth, it's the perfect cuppa – any time of the day.
To make this blend, our Tea Masters balance malty Indian Assam with brisk Ceylon and bright Kenyan teas. We use a high proportion of second flush Assam (leaves picked at the peak of their quality) to create an invigorating brew full of rich, comforting flavours. Wherever your day takes you, a cup of our English Breakfast Tea helps get you there.

Each and every morning, my favourite cup of tea would be English Breakfast. It’s strong, it’s coloury, it’s got a wonderful nutty flavour that I really do enjoy, and it takes the milk well.

In the UK Head Office we taste over 500 cups of tea every day, to search for the best quality teas available from around the world.

Later on in the afternoon I might try something like a Darjeeling that has the muscatel flavour, or maybe even a high-grown Ceylon, but definitely my favourite brew, and the one that I drink the most of, is English Breakfast.
