FAQS
Is black tea good or bad for you?
Black tea can be beneficial when consumed in the morning due to its energizing caffeine content, making it an excellent way to start your day. However, it's not recommended before bedtime as the caffeine may disrupt sleep patterns. Consider switching to caffeine-free options in the evening for a peaceful night's rest with our Herbal Teas.
Should I drink black tea everyday?
Yes, many British people drink black tea daily, especially the classic English Breakfast or Earl Grey blends. Drinking black tea everyday is fine, given its delightful taste and cultural significance. You can try different styles of black teas such as Indian Breakfast or Pride of Africa or some of our flavoured black teas such as our best-seller Strawberry & Mango.
What is the healthiest black tea to drink?
All black teas offer health benefits due to their antioxidant content. Assam and Darjeeling are excellent choices for their rich antioxidant profiles. To maximise health benefits, choose black teas that are pesticide-tested to ensure minimal exposure to harmful chemicals.
What black tea has the most flavor?
Chai tea and English Breakfast are both renowned for their strong, robust flavours. Chai tea offers a spiced, aromatic profile with a full-bodied taste, while English Breakfast is known for its bold, malty character. Both are popular choices for those who enjoy a flavourful and invigorating cup of black tea.
Is masala tea good for health?
