The Rich Legacy of Black Tea

Long revered for its strength and character, black tea has evolved from its ancient origins into a global staple. In the early 20th century, scientific studies began to highlight its healthful properties - notably its abundance of antioxidants, polyphenols, and heart-friendly compounds. Today, black tea is celebrated not only for its bold flavour but also for its potential wellness benefits, from supporting heart health to protecting against cell damage.

Best enjoyed with a dash of milk (dairy or non-dairy) and a touch of sweetness, each cup offers a rich, robust experience that lingers long after the final sip.
