This tea was created as a tribute to the English Navy who fought the famous historical battle against the French and Spanish Armada off the coast of Plymouth, and brought about one of the greatest victories of our time. With mighty strength, and the classic English dignity, their perseverence saw off the invaders, and we like to think that this tea is a fitting representation that they would be proud of.
Loose leaf tea is gaining in popularity as a pure way to enjoy tea, after so many years of the convenience brought about by the invention of the tea bag. The whole experience can be enjoyed in this manner, with modern glass diffuser tea pots allowing you to watch as the tea infuses the water, releasing its colour and flavour. This gift set of three boxes makes a wonderful present for the tea enthusiast.
The Taste: The medium strength Armada blend is for the classic tea drinker, blended with the thought of ‘afternoon tea’ this is one of our most popular, crafted with a high Assam content, for strength and colour.
Serving Suggestion: Enjoyable with or without milk, this tea should be accompanied with sandwiches and small cakes, sweet biscuits can be used if necessary. If you are planning your own English tea party then Armada blend is the tea you simply cannot do without.
Directions: Boil some water and use a little to warm the pot. Empty, and add one teaspoon of tea per person, plus one for the pot. Fill with boiling water and allow to brew for 3 to 5 minutes before serving.
