Black Tea
In contrast to other types of tea, black tea undergoes a complete oxidation process, transforming the colour as well as the flavour and polyphenol content of the tea. Black tea typically has dark tea leaves and an orange-reddish infusion, ranging in flavour from delicate floral to elegant chocolatey-malty.
Darjeeling Tea
Top cultivars and harvests flown in fresh from the most exclusive estates in Darjeeling, all either grown without pesticides or certified organic: the floral-sweet first flush, the malty and fruity second flush and the finest white Darjeeling.

Dian Hong (滇紅茶) black tea from Yunnan is widely renowned for its full-bodied, rich, slightly malty flavour. Our range includes high-quality organic Dian Hong sourced directly from a leading tea farm located 1500m above sea level in Pu Erh, Yunnan.
Keemun Black Tea
Keemun 祁門紅茶 is one of China’s most popular teas, known for its distinctive flavour profile featuring a tart sweetness, fruity plum notes, and a subtle hint of pine. We offer a Master Keemun crafted in the Gong Fu style, the highest level of traditional artisanal tea-making, sourced directly from its original terroir in Anhui. We also have an excellent everyday organic Keemun, sourced directly from a small farm in the Huangshan mountains.
Lapsang Souchong Black Tea
An especially high-quality expression of the renowned “smoked tea”. Unlike many commercially available Lapsang Souchong teas, it is not overly smoked, instead offering a purely natural, delicate smoky note owed to its traditional method of production. The tea is made from a locally endemic cultivar that grows wild in the region.
Yingde Hongcha Black Tea
Yingde Hongcha from Yingde Town in Guangdong Province is today regarded as one of China’s most prestigious black teas. It is famous for its elegant leaf appearance, its vibrant ruby-red infusion, and an aroma rich with notes of cacao and honey. Particularly prized is tea made from the Yingdehong No. 9 cultivar, which is used exclusively and in its entirety for our tea.
Taiwanese Black Tea
The island of Taiwan (formerly known as Formosa) is renowned for the consistently high quality of its teas, with Oolong and black teas among its most celebrated styles. The deliciously sweet Ruby Red (Hong Yu 紅玉) black tea is one of the most popular expressions of its kind. Ours is sourced directly from a renowned farm in the top terroir of Nantou and is grown using 100% natural cultivation methods, without the use of pesticides.

Korean Black Tea
Balhyocha is a traditional Korean black tea specialty, particularly associated with Hadong county in the south. Our Balhyocha is made from semi-wild tea trees that grow at the foot of Jirisan mountain where the hilly landscape with abundant fog and fresh mountain water provide the optimal conditions for growing tea. What's more, the tea grows amongst bamboo groves whose sweet dew helps to enhance the flavour, while the uneven terrain and special processing methods only allow for limited quantities of this much sought-after tea to be produced.
Earl Grey Tea
This popular British classic is refined with pure, organic bergamot oil, grown and gently cold pressed in the premier bergamot terroir in Calabria, Italy. All teas are our own creations, for which we have selected particularly aromatic, high-quality black and white tea specialities.
Kenyan Black Tea
Hand-picked and carefully selected Kenyan black teas and purple teas from the finest terroirs at the foothills of Mount Kenya and near Lake Victoria. Sourced directly from the farm, naturally grown without the use of pesticides and laboratory-tested.
