DESCRIPTION
This bespoke GREAT British Tea is created by Tregothnan for 10 Downing Street, and designed to showcase to the world the very best of British produce. The government’s GREAT initiative invites the world to trade with Britain. With this project Tregothnan celebrates the fact that tea cuts across all sections of community.
The strongest of Tregothnan’s brews, this blend is a hearty mix of Cornish tea leaves and the most premium Assam. This Great British Tea could also be described as a ‘builder’s brew’, strong enough to appeal to those who like a deep, dark colour and flavour from their tea.
The leaves are selected for a luxury caddy box and sleeve. Each box contains 14 individually sealed pouches for maximum freshness. Each pouch contains a perfectly measured quantity of loose leaf and sealed in “bush to cup” freshness into airtight foil pouches. Simply open the pouch and pour the contents into your tea infuser to brew.
For a perfect cup, use freshly boiled water, left to cool to approximately 95ºc, to avoid the loose leaf tea leaves from being scorched with overly hot water. Tregothnan recommends three to four minutes of steeping time.
