  • A rich blend of Assam, Kenyan and Ceylon teas make a comforting brew with well rounded flavours. This tea isn’t just for breakfast, it can be enjoyed all day long!

    This English Breakfast Tea produces a deep cognac coloured infusion with a smooth and rich malty flavour and a fresh tea aroma.

    To enjoy this tea at its best, always use freshly drawn and boiled water. (to help the planet, only boil the amount of water you need to save water and energy)

    Use 1 heaped teaspoon (around 2g) per person and pour over freshly boiled water (100°C).

    Steep for 3-5 minutes, allowing the leaves to unfurl and release their full flavours.

    Once the tea has brewed to your liking, strain, add milk/sweetener or go natural.

  • Naturally caffeinated.

    Anti-inflammatory, antioxidant. Good for longevity and brain health. (If enjoyed black without milk)

    Not all teas are certified fair trade however all producers have been vetted to ensure the farms/plantations all comply with national and international laws, meaning no forced or under age labour and workers are paid a correct wage. That they work in safe and hygienic working conditions with no harsh or inhumane treatment and fair working hours.

    Most of West Country Tea Co teas are organic, however they are unable to advertise or sell them as such, as they are not organic certified themselves. As they process the ingredients in blending they would need to be certified and unfortunately this is a very expensive route to take and not an option for them at the moment.
