Afternoon Tea Blend 1176

Afternoon Tea Blend 1176 - Our premium afternoon tea blend of Orange Pekoe, Second Flush and Tippy teas from Darjeeling, Assam & Kenya. This refined tea blend is well flavoured, works well with a dash of milk, and is perfectly partnered with a slice of cake, making it a great celebration tea to enjoy with friends.

Afternoon Tea Blend 1176 celebrates the date of the first National Eisteddfod in Wales, held at Cardigan Castle in 1176.

The National Eisteddfod is an important cultural festival held annually in Wales where people come together to celebrate Welsh culture, poetry, music, and the spoken word.

We think this is the perfect tea blend to enjoy with friends at any social gathering, but it's equally delicious enjoyed alone in your garden with a freshly baked slice of cake.

Did you know: Orange Pekoe (OP) is a grading term for fine whole leaf black tea indicating the premium size and quality of the tea leaves. The flavour profile of Orange Pekoe tea is typically mellow, smooth, and refreshing. The term "Orange Pekoe" is a quality indicator of fine tea that is believed to be related to the Dutch Royal House of Orange-Nassau and the Dutch East India Company's marketing and grading when this fine tea was first imported to Europe from Asia. The "Pekoe" part originates from a Chinese term referring to the fine white hairs found on the underside of certain varieties of high grade tea leaves.
