One story goes that ‘Breakfast Tea’ was the invention of an Edinburgh tea master in the 1800s. It was only after Queen Victoria had savoured the blend at Balmoral Castle, and brought it back to London, that its popularity spread through the capital’s most fashionable tea houses. Renamed, English Breakfast now enjoys a global presence. Our loose leaf version is rich, robust and malty. Every blend in the Heritage Collection honours the origins of the world’s finest tea.
