Ahmad Tea's English Tea No.1 is a unique blend of elegant black teas with a subtle hint of bergamot. A delightfully balanced cuppa, it's perfect for those seeking a more genteel approach to classic British tea. Our Tea Masters combine Ceylon, Kenyan and Assam teas to create this blend. They use a high proportion of Ceylon from Sri Lanka's hilly central tea gardens, where the finest and most delicate teas come from. This gives the blend its brisk, lively quality, which we enhance with a touch of our signature bergamot flavouring. Distinctive yet delicately fragrant, our English Tea No.1 makes a delightfully uplifting brew. Serve with a splash of milk or enjoy with lemon to bring out the tea's citrusy notes. Decorative tea caddies arrived not long after tea was first introduced to Europe. They were a way for the wealthy to store, protect and show off their expensive new import. Our pretty all-metal English Tea No.1 caddy is illustrated with William Lionel Wyllie's colourful Opening of Tower Bridge. A scene that celebrates British excellence seems appropriate for this blend. It's ideal for storing your blend in a little luxury and being part of the long-established British ceremony of making the perfect cup of tea. This pack contains 12 caddies.

In which case, it must be time to put the kettle on… INGREDIENTS Black tea, light bergamot flavoring DIRECTIONS Step 1: Warm the teapot with hot water. Having a cold teapot will cool the water so the tea won't brew properly. Give the water a little swirl around and then pour it away. Step 2: Use a teaspoon or tea measure to scoop the loose tea into the teapot. We recommend one teaspoon per person and one extra teaspoon for the pot. Step 3: Fill your kettle with freshly drawn water and bring it to the boil. Step 4: Pour the water straight onto the tea and pop a tea cosy over the pot to keep it as hot as possible. Leave for a minimum of four minutes to help it brew properly. Step 5: Give the pot a quick stir to mix it up a little bit and then serve. Add milk, lemon or sugar and enjoy your cup of Ahmad Tea.
