About the tea
A Historic Journey in a Cup
Embark on a centuries-old journey with our hand-blended Russian Caravan tea. This historic recipe, passed down through generations, captures the essence of the ancient tea caravans that traversed the Silk Road.
Our tea is a harmonious blend of premium black China teas, carefully selected and expertly blended to deliver a truly unforgettable taste experience. The heart of this blend lies in the smoky Formosa Lapsang Souchong, which imparts a rich, smoky flavour and aroma. Unlike many commercial brands that rely on artificial additives, our tea’s distinctive smoky notes are derived solely from the natural smoke-drying process.
Each sip of this multi-layered brew unveils a symphony of flavours. The sweet, malty undertones dance with the bold, smoky character, creating a complex and satisfying taste profile. Whether you prefer your tea black or with a touch of milk, Russian Caravan offers a comforting and indulgent experience.
Indulge in a piece of history with every cup.
