Drake's Blend pays homage to one of Plymouth's most famous historical figures - Sir Francis Drake. This is the man who is immortalised in the form of a statue on Plymouth Hoe, and who is every bit as famous for his unwillingness to abandon his game of bowls in spite of the encroaching Spanish Armada, as for his leadership of the Navy to victory against the odds. This tea is strong like the man himself, and has a full bodied flavour that is just as hard to beat.
This gift set of three boxes of 40 of our Drake's Blend teabags allows you to give the gift of a good, strong cup of luxury to a friend or loved one. The ideal way to allow others to discover your favoured brand, and they may even serve it to you the next time you visit!
The Taste: A muscular blend of selected Indian and African teas, Drake's Blend is for the tea drinker who likes strength and body from their tea. Dark red in colour and strong in aroma.
Serving Suggestion: Drake's blend has been designed to be served with milk as it is strong in flavour.
Drake's blend is to be enjoyed with savoury meals on returning from a long days work or from a trip.
Directions: Place one tea bag per person into a teapot, or one teabag into a tea cup. Fill the pot with boiling water and allow it to brew for 3 to 5 minutes before serving.
