Customer Questions

What flavour profile does the English Afternoon black tea have and for which time of day is it ideal?

Our English Afternoon black tea is a blend of teas from Africa, Assam, Darjeeling and Yunnan with a rich and full flavour. This tea is composed in the traditional English way, making it especially delicious during an afternoon tea, but thanks to its accessible character it can be enjoyed throughout the day. It is also ideal for serving to guests, as it appeals to a wide audience.

Is this tea suitable for adding milk or sugar, as with a traditional English afternoon tea?

Yes, this blend has been composed in such a way that it is perfectly suited for the traditional English 'afternoon tea', where milk and sometimes sugar are often added to the tea. The full, rich flavour of the blend holds up well with milk or a little sugar.

What is the best way to prepare this English Afternoon loose leaf tea?

We recommend preparing the tea with freshly boiled water (approximately 100°C). Use about 2 grams of tea per cup and let the tea steep for 3 to 4 minutes for the optimal flavour experience. You can adjust the strength by increasing or decreasing the steeping time as desired.

How many cups of tea can I make with 100 grams of loose English Afternoon tea?

With 100 grams of loose tea, you can make approximately 40 to 50 cups of tea, depending on how many tea leaves you use per cup. We recommend using about 2 grams of tea per 200 ml cup.
