• Silver Tip White Tea

• RAF Tea for Heroes

Traditional British tea at its finest.

A bespoke blend created for the RAF. When only the best will do.

But don't take our word for it. Here is comedian Alexander Armstrong explaining why RAF Tea is worth it.

Rich, black tea from a Fairtrade garden in the mountains of Malawi.  

To compare this to an ordinary tea would be like comparing a line-drawing with a sculpture. This is like drinking normal tea but in 3-D.

Each tin comes with a short story by Alexander McCall Smith.

The first ever English tea – and the best Earl Grey we've ever tasted.

Grown within a walled garden at Tregothnan in Cornwall. Hand-made and carefully hand-scented with real bergamot oil. It has been blended with a top quality Assam to produce a wonderfully bright and subtle tea.

A truly epicurean black China Tea.

Crafted by masters from very young and tender spring leaves and golden buds that are painstakingly kept whole during processing. The sweetness of the leaves is extraordinary with flavours of burnt sugar and rich toffee. 

Tie Guan Yin Chinese oolong - The Iron Goddess of Mercy.

Lying artfully between green and black tea oolong is crafted to an exact point at which the leaves reveal their hidden subtleties. Also known at Tie Guan Yin this oolong has rich floral aromas leading to a perfectly balanced mineral finish.

Exquisite Chinese green tea that is meticulously hand-crafted. 

The leaves are fired in a wok over charcoal in the same way it has been produced for 5000 years. Clean and refreshing with a light smoky undertone this tea is the antithesis of bitter, mass produced green teas.

Pure white China tea also known as White Peony or Bai Mu Dan.

Entirely hand-made from tender spring buds and new leaves. Like White Silver Tip it has a gentle sweetness combined with fresh grassy notes - but the open leaves give a deeper flavour and a hint of peach.

The most prized of all white China tea.

The purest, least processed tea available. Made only from tender spring buds. Low in caffeine and retaining extremely high levels of antioxidants. Delicate, clean and sweet with the aroma of freshly cut grass.

The finest white silver tips scented with fresh jasmine flowers.

Not flavoured and containing no additives. Delicate silver tips absorb the scent of fresh jasmine flowers over six consecutive nights. Once the preserve of Emperors this is simply the finest jasmine tea available anywhere.
