Afternoon Blend (teapod blend)
Price: £3.95 (100g)A delicate combination of aromatic Indian Darjeeling with a light, citrus Sri Lankan Uva. The Sri Lankan tea in this blend is high-grown and plucked during only a few weeks in February when the Uva season is at it’s best – giving it a light and citrus flavour.
It has been blended with First Flush Indian Darjeeling – the most highly sought after taste as it’s the first growth of the new season (plucked in March/April) and has the typically characteristic ‘muscatel’ or grape-like flavour that gives a very light and green taste in the cup. These two light teas blend together to provide a refreshing afternoon blend that’s perfect with or without just a dash of milk.
Boil freshly drawn water, infuse leaves for up to four minutes and drink with or without milk.

Price: £5.45 (100g)Highest quality early season first flush Indian Darjeeling – sophisticated and aromatic with hints of muscatel. First Flush Indian Darjeeling is the most highly sought after taste as it’s the first growth of the new season (plucked in March/April) and has the typically characteristic ‘muscatel’ or grape-like flavour that gives a very light and green taste in the cup.
Located in the foothills of the Himalayas, it is some of the highest grown tea in the world and is often referred to as the ‘Champagne of teas.’ Like the Champagne region in France, it can only be called Darjeeling if it is grown within the region’s boundaries and this is strictly controlled and protected.
