Description

A superb blend of black tea, mandarin, orange and blood orange.

This classic, beautifully delicate tea is delicious at any time of day.

Different from the teas produced in Georgia, Russian blends are the ones that have been drunk regularly in Russia since the 17th century. These latter teas, which in the beginning were blends of black Chinese teas, became more diversified at the end of the 19th century by the introduction of Indian teas at the Russian court, most notably Darjeeling. Since then it has been the custom to refer to all blends of Darjeeling and different Chinese black teas as “Russian blends” teas, whether or not they are scented with natural citrus extracts.

Tea ingredients

black tea (China, India, Ruanda, Sri Lanka) (93%), orange peels (4%), natural flavour (grapefruit, orange, bergamot, lemon).
