HOW TO MAKE BREAKFAST TEA RITUAL - ENGLISH BREAKFAST
Before the 18th century, it was normal to drink beer with breakfast! In 1838, as Assam began to land in London, although the "saffron" of its age in terms of cost, people began to realise there was an alternative start to the day...
Smooth and well rounded, strong and robust tasting, this is a truly refreshing and invigorating tea. a perfect choice for any time or occasion - not simply just for breakfast. Great with or without milk, this bright coloured tea is much loved and is today and essential part of a traditional English day.
And here's a secret - it's fabulous with bangers and mash!
Ingredients
Black tea, just like green tea, comes from the Camellia Sinensis plant.
- - After plucking, the leaves are laid on drying trays & withered to remove some moisture and make more pliable
- - The leaves are then rolled and laid out and a heady mixture of warm air, aromatic juices, bacteria & enzymes leads to oxidation (a natural reaction that affects strength & colour)
- - Oxidation is stopped by firing (with hot air) when the leaves are the right (brown) colour depending on the region
- - The leaves turn black as they dry
- ... and finally, are sorted or graded by size
