Birchall Great Rift Breakfast Blend is a unique English breakfast tea, sourced exclusively from East Africa's finest tea estates, from Rwanda through to the Rift Valley in Kenya. This premium black tea is grown at high altitudes in cool climates, allowing the tea bushes to develop deeper flavour before being hand-plucked. Each leaf, bud, and tender stem is carefully harvested in a 'perfect pick' to ensure exceptional brightness, a golden colour, and a strong, refreshing taste that stands up perfectly to milk.
Boil water to a rolling boil (212°F/100°C), then let it cool for a minute. Add one teaspoon of loose leaf tea per cup using an infuser or directly into the cup. Steep for 3–5 minutes, then remove or strain before drinking. Contains caffeine—not recommended for children or pregnant women.
