Vanilla Flavoured Black Tea

The unmistakable quality of Bourbon vanilla is one of the most complementary flavours to add to tea. It also suggests a real creaminess in the cup, which is why many people drink it who cannot drink milk. Vanilla pods contain the seeds from the vanilla orchid plant. Real vanilla is expensive as each plant must be pollinated individually by hand.

We craft this delicious blend in the shop using the finest black teas, natural vanilla flavourings, and carefully selected fruits and flowers. It's an intriguing drink on its own, or transforms beautifully when sweetened or added to fruit juice — perfect for sipping from a brandy or whisky glass if you fancy something a little more ceremonial.

Ever since the Chinese first added blossoms and fruit juices to tea centuries ago, people have enjoyed discovering complementary flavours. The marriage of tea to natural fruit oils, flowers and spices opens up an infinite variety of surprising tastes to the drinker — each cup offers something to savour.
