Peter's Pick

A popular breakfast blend of various teas from the highlands of Rwanda. Yields a golden infusion with a very aromatic taste. Goes well with milk and or sugar.

When steeping this tea, I do not recommend making it too strong, especially on your first cup. Too strong a cup will most likely turn you off this tea (and most other black teas for that matter).

Use 2 -3 grams per 8 ounce cup, bring water to the boil, 212F. and steep for 3 to 5 minutes. Please stay with your cup and make certain it is steeped properly. Way too many cups of tea are ruined by over-steeping and not paying careful attention to the steeping parameters.

Ask us about why this may be the English Breakfast tea for you. Put a note in the ‘comments’ and we will send you a sample to see if Rwanda OP English Breakfast Black Tea should be in your tea cupboard.

We are customer friendly and we love to talk and drink TEA!

Brew Ha-Ha

Black tea is a variety of tea from the Camellia sinensis plant that is a species of an evergreen shrub or small tree from the family Theaaceae whose leaves and leaf buds are used to produce 'TEA'

Black Tea is fully oxidized in comparison to others like Green, Oolong or White which are much less oxidized. Black Tea is the most popular of all the teas and the most widely consumed in the world.

Nutritional

Black tea contains:

alkaloids, including caffeine, theophylline, and theobromine, amino acids, carbohydrates, proteins, chlorophyll, fluoride, aluminum, minerals and trace elements, volatile organic compounds, which contribute to its odor and taste

The antioxidant effect of black tea is due to its polyphenol content. Polyphenols are chemical compounds that protect plants from ultraviolet radiation and harmful, disease-causing pathogens. Flavonoids are one type of polyphenol. They occur in grapes, red wine, and other foods.
