Fortnum’s Tea
Tea has been a mainstay of our business since 1707 and remains close to the hearts, and caddies, of our customers. Our range includes more than 100 blends, all exclusive to Fortnum’s, made with leaves sourced from the finest estates from China to Ceylon. We even have tea from Cornwall – we really do look everywhere.
Fortnum’s Famous Blends
The blending of tea is a fine art that we have been practising for several centuries. Our famous blends use leaves from many different tea-producing regions and explore the many possibilities of tea, from the gently refreshing to the enjoyably stimulating. Created to suit every time of day, there is a Fortnum's blend for every occasion.
