Black Tea

Black Tea and Green Tea are what most people are familiar with. Black tea is generally a stronger tea in terms of flavour than the other types of teas and Black tea naturally has a higher concentration of caffeine usually. It is a full bodied tea and a strong tea, that is quite flavourful and delicious on its own, or with a splash of milk and sugar.

 Black tea is often a favourite when making Iced tea.


Black Tea is made from the leaves of the camellia sinensis plant, and is more oxidized than other varieties of tea, brewing a stronger flavour. Black Tea is the most processed type of tea and tastes the least like the natural leaf. Black Tea is graded according to size, not quality.There are two grades of black tea, leaf and broken. Subdivisions of the grade include Orange Pekoe, Pekoe, and Souchong. Black teas are fully fermented.
