English Breakfast Loose Leaf Tea Waitrose 125g

Large leaf tea, specially selected and blended for Waitrose. Carefully selected China teas, lightly scented with natural Bergamot, provide the authentic Earl Grey taste: smooth with a subtle balance of flavours.

British Prime Minister Earl Grey gave his name to this hugely popular tea back in the 1830s, and ever since it has been thought of as a classic English afternoon tea. It is not a type of tea, but a flavour, made up of a simple black tea flavoured with aromatic and stimulating oil of bergamot. 

This award winning Jasmine Green Tea is the perfect choice for those who have developed a taste for the natural Jasmine aroma. This is a soft, sensual, uplifting tea which has proven health benefits. It is an ideal energy booster for those on the go. Sourced from the prestigious Jianxe Province in China, our tea is carefully produced and then gently steamed over a whole Jasmine Flower to create a unique aroma and flavour. 

Our finest Assam tea is grown in the Brahmaputra Valley in north-east India. We select only superior teas from the second flush season, when the quality is at its very best. The flavour is rich with a distinctive malty taste found only in teas from Assam, making it deliciously invigorating for breakfast and throughout the day. 

With a refreshingly uncomplicated flavour, Barry's Irish Breakfast is perfect for relaxed people who enjoy life and good company. It is a tea for all those moments during the day when you say: "I'd love a cup of tea!" As with all our teas, Irish Breakfast uses carefully selected tea leaves and nothing else besides.

A sublime punchy blend that features a rich full-bodied Assam and a zesty fragrant Ceylon

A bracing blend of expertly selected Assam and Kenyan teas; the first provides maltiness, the second adds brightness.

This special blend was created to mark the wedding in 2011 of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The top-quality Assam is lifted by the addition of a little Kenyan tea - the location of Prince William’s marriage proposal. Deservedly popular at the time of the wedding, it remains much in demand and has now permanently joined the ranks of our heritage blend teas. 

Made using teas from some of the world’s best-known tea-growing countries, this traditional large leaf blend makes a rich, bold tea.
