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 make this delicious blend, as with all of our flavoured teas, in the shop using the best teas, natural flavourings and fruits and flowers. They make for an interesting adult soft drink, or non-alcoholic cocktail when sweetened or added to fruit juice and can be enjoyed in short measures from a brandy or whisky glass and similarly savoured. Ever since the Chinese first added blossoms and fruit juices to tea centuries ago, people have enjoyed experimenting to find complementary flavours. The marriage of tea to natural fruit oils, flowers and spices, opens up an infinite variety of surprising tastes to the drinker.
