From Genuine Tea

This breakfast blend consists of 50% organic Golden Assam leaves from Mana Organics, 25% organic Ceylon CTC from Nilmini Estates and 25% organic Keemun from the Hunan Tea Farmers’ Co-Operative. A strong, malty cup with hints of cocoa and cinnamon, this tea is ideal for those early mornings and designed to be paired with milk.

At Genuine Tea, we blended this tea for cafes in Toronto that were looking for a higher quality tea that still offered a sweet, malty and brisk punch. This breakfast blend also makes an amazing base for a Maple Tea Latte – a truly Canadian recipe!

Due to the broken nature of the CTC tea leaves and heavy oxidation, this tea has a higher caffeine content than most other teas.

Fairly robust, butt-kicking everyday wake-up staple in my house. This is the first tea I drink most days. I only recently kicked coffee in the mornings & needed a tea that could get me up and moving. I am not a morning person in the very least, but this nice, workhorse Assam does the trick. Pretty full flavour, a bit astringent, & somewhat tannin-y but with a hint of sweetness and spice to balance it out. Benefits from addition of a small quantity of milk and maybe a light sweetener, but smooth enough that it in no way requires it. (Note: this is, as of the writing of this note, available on Genuine Tea’s site.)
