American Breakfast, Loose
- Invigorating Black Tea
American Breakfast is a bright & balanced blend of golden-tipped black teas and sunny calendula petals. It's not quite your English Breakfast tea; we think it's something better. Chinese Yunnan and Indian Assam black teas make for a richly flavored, brisk and bold morning tea—the perfect way to start your day. Enjoy this full-bodied breakfast tea on its own, or with a dash of milk and sugar.
- Caffeinated
BLACK TEA comes from the camellia sinensis plant. Black teas are withered, rolled, and fully oxidized, which is what darkens them from green to black. Black teas feature deep and robust flavors and generally have the highest caffeine content of all tea.
GREEN TEA comes from the cammellia sinensis plant. Typically, the newest, young shoots of the plant are harvested then immediately dried to prevent oxidation. Flavor profiles are wide-ranging and include smoky, sweet, vegetal, grassy, umami, nutty, and floral. Green teas typically contain a low to moderate amount of caffeine.
HERBAL TEA (also called a tisane), is an infusion from any plant other than camellia sinensis. Herbal teas are almost always naturally caffeine free and can be made from a wide variety of herbs, flowers, and spices. Herbal teas include mint, chamomile, ginger, turmeric, cinnamon, hibiscus, and lemongrass.
