Orange Pekoe 940
25 Individually sealed pyramid tea bags.
Contrary to popular belief, Orange Pekoe (or OP) is NOT orange
flavoured. Rather, the name denotes the standard by which all black teas
are measured, and for our luxury hospitality range, we believe that we
have sourced one of the finest OPs available on the global market.
Grown
at high altitudes in Kenya, India, and China, and seasonally produced,
OP is thought to be full of natural health benefits, including
antioxidant properties and cardiovascular benefits.
Moody and
malty, with hints of oak, the coppery colour of the high-quality
oxidised leaves sets a standard of its own when brewed. Best enjoyed
medium to strong, after 4-7 minutes at a temperature of 100°C/212°F,
this premium cuppa can be taken with a splash of milk (and sugar to
taste), or lemon and honey as you prefer.
What the Tea Master has
to say: “Truly stunning Orange Pekoe. Brisk and bright. You can taste
the markers of seasonal quality and excellent manufacture. Slightly
pointed on the palate with rich moody depth. Best brewed 4 to 5 minutes
to draw out the malty notes.”
