To fully appreciate the rich flavors and aromatic qualities of English Breakfast Broken ORGANIC, follow these brewing guidelines:
- Water Temperature: 100°C (212°F) - Use freshly boiled water for optimal extraction.
- Tea Quantity: 12g per liter of water (approximately 2-3 teaspoons per cup)
- Steeping Time: 3-5 minutes, depending on desired strength
For a traditional English-style service, consider adding a splash of milk or a slice of lemon to taste. This robust blend can stand up to milk without losing its distinctive character, making it an excellent choice for a classic "builder's tea" or a more refined afternoon tea service.
Experiment with steeping times to find your perfect balance of strength and flavor. A shorter steep will yield a lighter, more nuanced cup, while a longer infusion will produce a bolder, more intense brew. The versatility of this blend allows it to be enjoyed throughout the day, from a bracing morning cup to a comforting afternoon refreshment.
