Royal Blend Tea Notes

First blended in 1902 at the request of King Edward VII - and actually known as King's Blend until the 1920s - Royal Blend is now serving its fifth British monarch.

About Royal Blend

A combination of low-grown Flowery Pekoe from Sri Lanka and robust Assam from India, the blend of the two results in a beautiful, natural honey-sweetness and thanks to the Assam, a pleasing maltiness too. Bold, strong and bright in both appearance and taste, our most famous tea is enjoyable at any time of the day.

How to Brew

Boil water to 100°C, then brew for 3 minutes.

Best served with milk.

What to eat with it

A versatile cup that works with many flavours, we particularly recommend this all-day tea with bold savoury dishes like Welsh Rarebit, or sweet scones piled with cream and strawberry preserve.
